 this is the same issue, but I don't use google maps, but get crashes up to
 several per 15min on version 5. I'm on different websites, have addons
 installed, have a ton of tabs open, etc, so it's not easy to narrow down,
 but I would say the consequence of crashes in v5 is not just that people
 can't use google maps and I am filling out a lot of webforms, which means
 that every time it crashes I loose all my work. It would seem that unless
 this is patched fast I'll be obliged to downgrade.

 We are testing a fixup release currently. Feel free to do that as well and
 report back if things are back to normal with 5.0.1. You find bundles at:
