Chrome has asked me to 'kill a page'

NVDL: Chrome might start off a bit slow, but give it time to warm up. After all, it's Chrome. Once your cache is loaded and have some browsing history in the engine, it's smooth and shiny efficient - err...like Chrome. I like that it is even more intuitive than Firefox.

That said, I'm using Firefox now (loading Chrome takes a while, and a few pages have already been 'killed').
Chrome also features V8, Google's homegrown JavaScript engine that will enable richer Web applications to run faster. Initial tests have found that Chrome does load some pages faster than Firefox and IE.
A starting page akin to the Opera browser's Speed Dial page is also integrated into Chrome. This page will display thumbnail shots of your most visited sites, as well as the most utilized search engines and recently bookmarked Web pages. When a user opens up a new tab, this starting page will be displayed
The address bar is dubbed the "Omnibox," and will display real-time suggestions as you type in your query or URL.
