I completely agree. The latest version especially has rendered the browser nearly unusable for me (among many other things, pages just don't load, and the browser freezes constantly).

Are you using the Chrome beta or dev channel? Or are these problems with the stable channel?

On Mac Chrome is working fine, but on Windows it seems to be completely screwed up these days. If you open multiple youtube windows, for example, it screws up pretty much every time you switch between windows - you have to minimize the window and uniconify it for it to render properly. This is pretty basic stuff.

Could be related to the lack of Google employees on Windows.

I think you're right. I mostly use OSX these days, but I also test my stuff on Windows a lot. Virtualbox makes it easy.
