I wouldn't think it would be a memory problem on a Macbook Pro though?

It could be running out of memory. Have you tried with all extensions
disabled?

If you want to find the problem in the web page, the best way to debug
this kind of thing is to cut stuff out until you have the minimum
necessary to crash. So I would start by opening the CSS file in a text
editor, cutting out all lines of CSS, loading the page, and seeing if
it crashes. If it doesn't, paste the CSS back in. This time cut out
the top half and reload. If it crashes, then the problem is in the
bottom half. Keep cutting away at the bottom half until you've figured
out what the problem is. If it doesn't crash, then the problem is likely
in the top half. Paste the top half back in and delete the bottom half.
Etc.
