When I am using Chrome, after some time the system freezes. I don't know why it's happening with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. I keep updating my system.

first try this trick

google-chrome --disable-gpu

if it runs ok follow this steps

1.Disable hardware acceleration in chrome settings

Steps:

  • Type "chrome://settings" in the URL bar, and then click "Advanced"

  • Untick "use hardware acceleration when available"

2.Disable GPU Rasterization

  • Go to "chrome://flags"
  • Disable "GPU Rasterization"

3.Check how Chrome uses memory (Shift + Escape) (OPTIONAL)

Extensions uses more memory too. If you find high memory usage in extensions (Adblockers are memory hogs), remove them too. That would help.
