Have you properly configured your user?

What I usually do is:

1) be sure my user has the "staff" class:

# grep dcoppa /etc/master.passwd
dcoppa:***:1000:1000:staff:0:0:David Coppa:/home/dcoppa:/bin/ksh

2) I have this at the top of my ~/.profile:

---8<---

# bump limits
ulimit -S -d $(ulimit -H -d)
ulimit -S -n $(ulimit -H -n)
ulimit -S -p $(ulimit -H -p)
ulimit -S -s $(ulimit -H -s)

---8<---

With chromium or iridium it's not as bad as you have described.
Personally I use iridium on a daily basis.

Ciao!
David
