Two questions and a suggestion:
1. How much memory do the machines have?
2. Can you run chrome from the command line and post what gets put into stdout/stderr?
Suggestion: See if you can get Chromium to start on a fresh profile
(move the data folder in the home directory out of the way so it's like
starting from fresh -- there may be a command line switch for that, not
sure). That would rule out a problem with any add-ons that might be
making this worse.
