See, everyone breaks this out as an argument for responsiveness - but is Chrome really any better on this front? If I open half a dozen reddit tabs (or any other site that loads slowly) in Chrome, I cannot interact with (or often even SEE) any of those tabs until ALL of them have finished loading. This effect is normally limited to tabs all on the same domain but I have observed it on occasion cross-domain - tab A on domain A says it has finished loading, but I can't do anything until tab B, on domain B, has finished loading. The second tab B's loading icon stops spinning, tab A starts working. I would say this is a clear case of one tab affecting the responsiveness of another, so I don't think separate processes is a panacea for these issues.
That said, from a security perspective, they enable some clear benefits, so I am all for it - it's just not a cure-all for responsiveness issues.
