That used to happen to me weekly or so, but then I switched the majority of my browser workload from Chrome to Safari, and I haven't had that issue in the several months since.

I don't use a lot of tools that embed Chromium, though, so I'm not entirely sure just a browser switch would keep you from hitting memory pressure warnings.

I think that only happens when your swap file takes up all available space on your drive
Perhaps, but that's not the case here. I have plenty of available disk space.
