hey, i can't reproduce this issue. my wordpress.com blog (latest version) is 
working fine with both chrome 31 and 29.
are you using an older wordpress version?
have you created custom filters? please post the output of RTA options -> 
ctrl+shift+j -> localStorage.getItem("linkmatches")
can you hit ctrl+shift+j for the console and then input the following commands:

console.debug(document.getElementsByTagName('a').length + 
document.getElementsByTagName('button').length + 
document.getElementsByTagName('input').length)

(one line) to check whether there's an abnormal amount of elements that the 
content script might be choking on (i have ~1200 in my 
wordpress/appearance/menu page).
