Shall I uninstall and reinstall Chrome?
I'm all for BETA's but whats so different about it?
hi,
I had the same problem with the Google Renderer hitting 90% CPU, and it was affecting whenever i opened Facebook and even the google.com page!!
at first i thought it was the Adobe Flash and Shockwave plugin, so i re-installed, removed, disabled, you name it i tried it, but no luck.
I went through my plug-ins again and found a Facebook plugin called "Facebook Video Calling Plugin" , i disabled that and voila! all is working like a charm now.
I hope this can benefit someone out there.
Avoid Facebook
Kidding, are you using the latest version of Chrome? What extensions do you have installed? Try quitting and restarting too.
My MacBook Pro 13" also has 8GB of RAM and Chrome is currently using only 19% CPU with two windows and more than 10 tabs opened right now. I also have several extensions installed.
