Most of the browser crashes are caused by system problems, so you should
start your checks with your PC. That said, Chrome is that evil one we all
use because even as it's quite efficient, it's a memory hog. My computer
has 8GB RAM and I still reach 80% RAM usage thanks to Chrome.
But that's not reason enough for me to go to others, the Pros exceed the
Cons. Opera is light but misses many things. I actually don't like Opera
mini for one reason; Javascript incompatibility, like ever tried using
Disqus on opera mini?
