I have a strange problem with Chrome and Lubuntu right now.
Often times (not always), one process of chrome uses an entry cpu core for it self, constantly.
Even when i close chrome, this process stays open and under full load.
Any way to determine what this process does?
It looks a lot like a mining bot or a infinit loop bug.

The task closes itself ~1 minute after closing chrome., but runs indefinitely when using chrome.
The process is not related to one specific tab.

After additional investigation i have discovered that this process always runs at full load for roughly a minute a new tab is opened, even if this tab is a simple "new tab".
