Could you get a backtrace when in this state? It works like this:
1. Install chromium-dbg.
2. Run "chromium --temp-profile -g" from a terminal and type "run" to
get it going.
3. Get a tab to hang.
4. Hit ^C.
5. Get a backtrace following the instructions from
/usr/share/bug/chromium/presubj.

Yes, there are lots of differences between Chromium and Firefox.
Thanks for reporting it.
