Emulator crashes Google Crome

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The emulator formerly ran in Google Chrome just fine, but starting sometime in 
the Fall of 2013, now has problems. It starts out okay, but after a few 
minutes, all of the emulator windows crash with a Chrome "Aw Snap!" error. The 
only recovery is to close all of those windows and open a new one for the 
console.

It appears the crash is due either to a memory leak in the emulator or 
inadequate garbage collection by Chrome. The Chrome Memory Profiler shows 
steadily increasing memory utilization until 300-400MB, at which point Chrome 
aborts the scripts.

Problem went away with Chrome version 35. Tested latest version of emulator 
with old Chrome 31, and the problem was still occurring. Tested same version of 
emulator with Chrome 35, and it works fine on both Windows 7 and Mac OS 10.6.8.

It was definitely a problem with Chrome, not the emulator.
