Websites can make JS calls resulting in a lot of IPC from content to parent process to the point where the parent is overloaded, becomes very slow and can freeze or crash.
See referenced bugs for examples.
To mitigate this issue, we are considering killing the content process when it sends too many IPC messages to the parent.
