These kinds of hard locks often point at graphics driver problems, but normally Chrome relies on a driver whitelist that likely doesn't include any FreeBSD drivers. Did you perhaps set a flag somewhere to bypass a blacklist?
You could try some command line flags like --blacklist-accelerated-compositing --blacklist-webgl to see if they help. (I found those on http://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/ , not certain if they do what you need.) Another idea is to use strace/ktrace/truss into a log file to see what it was doing around the time of dying. On Wed, May 16, 2012 at 11:15 PM, Conrad J.
