Sometimes I find that pkill chromium doesn't clean up all the stay behinds. I need two rounds of pkill to get them all.

Maybe try this one:

#!/bin/bash

chromium

me=$(basename $0)

if [[ -z $(wmctrl -l | grep Chromium) ]]; then

    processes=$(ps ax | grep chromium | grep -v grep | grep -v $me | awk '{print $1}')
    
    if [[ $processes == "" ]]; then
	echo -e "\e[1;32mChromium exited cleanly, no processes to kill.\e[0m"
    else
	echo -e "\e[1;31mChromium left zombie processes, cleaning up...\e[0m"
	kill $processes
    fi
    
else
    echo -e "\e[1;32mThere are still Chromium windows open. Not cleaning up yet.\e[0m"
fi

I can confirm the bug with Chrome 25.0.1364.172 and nvidia 313.26.

I think I am experiencing this issue with KDE 4.10 and the Intel gfx driver. Running Chromium 26.0.1410.43 (189671)

Sorry, is the problem maybe solved finally?

No, it's still not solved.

I thought it was with the latest NVIDIA driver that just came out, but I still occasionally run into this as well.

As far as I know, the Chromium package provided through pacman is compiled from now on (or until NVIDIA cleans it's mess) without tcmalloc. I haven't seen any zombie processes since then so I encourage you all to update

Great, i'm dropping google-chrome in favour to chromium. Thanks for posting!

It seems as though someone changed the chromium package at chromium 26.0.1410.43-3

+ -Dlinux_use_tcmalloc=0 \

so perhaps this problem has gone away. Unfortunately I switched to using nouveau in the mean time. I noticed some minor issues like not being able to show the gpu temperature, but nothing too strange. I do see occasional lock ups in my time wasting with swell foop. Not sure whether I'll switch back.

Seems solved on chrome, testing needed
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issu … 177218#c14

#14 phajdan.jr@chromium.org
nvidia-drivers-331.20 claims to fix this issue:
"Fixed a bug that could cause a deadlock when forking from OpenGL programs which use some malloc implementations, such as TCMalloc."
I'd appreciate some tests with that - please report results.

#15 dvpdiner2
Based on a few days with the new nVidia drivers, I haven't seen any Chrome_ProcessL processes recently.
