On Ubuntu 11.10 and Chrome 18.0.1025.168, this just completely killed the OS. As soon as the tab loaded, the mouse froze and the display stopped updating. I couldn't even enter a separate TTY session (ctrl-alt-F6 for example). At least this has apparently exposed a big security issue in the browser.
