Yes, every modern browser uses a separate process per browser tab.  Besides the 
mentioned Firefox and Chrome, Safari also does it.  So generally a page crash 
shouldn't affect anything but that page, or if a page consumes a lot of RAM or 
CPU, it can be independently killed by a regular system process manager. --
