Hi,

I'm running PC-BSD 10.2  and Chromium  46.0.2490.80 (64-bit) has now become
impossible to use.

FreeBSD jjmspcbsd 10.2-RELEASE-p4 FreeBSD 10.2-RELEASE-p4 #0: Tue Aug 18
15:15:36 UTC 2015
root@amd64-builder.pcbsd.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64

nvidia-driver-346.96

Actually, I'm running two PC-BSD 10.2 systems - one upgraded from 9 and one
newly installed.
Both exhibit the same behaviour

Chromium seems to have got worse over the last few releases and is now very
unpredictable.

A couple of releases ago, it stopped printing - which was an inconvenience
but not a showstopper.

Now it has trouble opening tabs containing simple searches - same message
as when trying to print "Aw Shuck" or some-such - but very unpredictable;
sometimes it works, sometimes not.
Occasionally it crashes out all together - but no error messages.

I have done some research and it seems some devs are complaining that
Chromium is very difficult to maintain; I can understand that and I
sympathise.

So, is there any way out of this - or should I just abandon Chromium?

Happy to supply further details of my system of course.

Thanks,
--=20
Regards,
John Murphy
