Last night the Twitter thread was causing Chrome to crash displaying this message.

I dismissed it as nothing and it started working again but now its doing it again this morning, no other thread on the Caf is affected when the Twitter thread does this.
 
I just want to point out too that this thread is getting rather dumb now because all this data from twitter trying to be parsed in one go on one page will be causing some users browsers to stack overflow and cause browser freezing (not responding) for 3 to 5 seconds whilst data is being parsed. Those with poor hardware specs and or slower connections may even be experiencing browser crashes.

I'm a web developer by trade and I couldn't help but point this out (sorry mods, please don't take offence)

A newb posted this yesterday in their standalone twitter thread, where there is a wall of tweets and no real convo's. I dont know if it is that reason or not though personally. I'm only guessing as I can't see what image you posted!
 
Could be it, but it wouldn't explain why it crashes on Chrome on my Macbook Pro connected to the internet thats just clocked a 88Mbps time but loads ok on my phone connected to 3G, would it?

Sorry, just re read this and it came across as really aggressive. I didn't mean it to be, was asking.
