Apart from having to close each tab/window, freeing all its resources,
bits of the executable itself need to be paged in to do various things,
which may need to page out some more. What's amazing is that it can do
that for several minutes, coming out unscathed when it finally quits!
(extreme example, but a true story from a wild ebay session yesterday :)
perfect example of crappy software - unfortunately most todays web
browsers are coded by people that don't spend even few minutes
understanding how OS works.
