I regularly check shm usage to see what chromium is up to...to the point where I have an alias that identifies unattached segments and tallies up usage stats.  I think I've posted it before, but here it is again:

alias lsshm 'ipcs -mob | awk '\''NR > 2 { if ( $5 == "<user>" && $7 == 0 ) { sum += $8; cnt++; } { tcnt++; total += $8; print $0 } } END { if (cnt > 0) print "count = " cnt "/" tcnt " using = " sum " (" sum/1048576 "MB) out of " total " (" total/1048576 "MB)"; else print "total = " tcnt " using = " total " (" total/1048576 "MB)" }'\'''

also have aliases to remove....didn't help.
