Chrome dev tools crashing when debugging JS
Been googling around a bit for the last week or two and haven't come up with any leads.
I believe this started ever since the latest major chrome web browser update, from 68 to 69. (currently on version 69.0.3497.100 )
Basically, when I'm using the chrome dev tools and debugging some javascript, the browser crashes when I begin typing a variable name into the console. I'll get a character or two in and then bam, the whole thing crashes.
I'll close the browser, reopen it and still crashes immediately when typing in the console. Sometimes there are a few hours in between episodes, but this has been a persistent issue for too long and is severely impacting my ability as a developer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I've been hitting the same issue on Chrome 69. After doing some digging, I think this bug is related: bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=729826

That does look related. I looked a bit for answers, but didn't find anything useful. I've been so busy with work I just switched to firefox's dev tools. They have their own issues, but at least it's not crashing dozens of times during my workday. Their HTML pane is a bit nicer too

I also have issues with Chrome 69 & DevTools "quitting" when stepping through code. Using React/Redux stack. Had no issues in Chrome 68. Tried uninstalling React/Redux developer extensions, but would still crash without them installed.

As pointed out on this Reddit post: Google Chrome 69 Issues, that particular version was riddled with bugs. One website, quoting here from the same reddit thread, titled their article as "Atrocious performance - Google Chrome 69".
While this is not a solution, the easiest thing you can do is update to the latest version. (70.0.3538.77, at the time of writing.)
