Why Would My App Crash In Chrome If I Refresh A Few Times?

I'm building a web app that does a lot of DOM manipulation and uses CSS3 effects. I'm repeatedly refreshing the page, and on every 4th or 5th reload, Chrome displays the Aw, snap p

Solution 1:

We to are experiencing the same thing in latest chrome version 40.0.2214.111 on multiple computers.

We logged a bug with Chromium here: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=456365

Feel free to add comments / star to help get on their radar.

It seems tough to debug as there is no crash data and running debug tools themselves will cause crashes.

We have not been able to re-produce in Chrome Canary.

Solution 2:

We were having the same issue using last version of chrome (40.0.2214.111).

In our case the app is using SoundJS and if we disable webaudio api for this library, the app is working ok.

if (navigator && navigator.userAgent && navigator.userAgent.match("40.0.2214.111")) {
           createjs.Sound.registerPlugins([createjs.HTMLAudioPlugin]);
        } else {
           createjs.Sound.registerPlugins([createjs.WebAudioPlugin, createjs.HTMLAudioPlugin, createjs.FlashPlugin]);
}

don't know if your are using SoundJS but just in case I wanted to add this comment.
