How to recover from/detect chrome crash

I'm observing chrome crashing (no scanning activity, lots of chrome_crashpad in top) and the crawlee playwrightcrawler process stalls untill I kill all Chrome instances. After that, Crawlee continues working (though instantly overloading memory, and chrome instances taking 100% of the CPU). Is there a way to detect this happening and gracefully restarting chrome?

Crawlee should clean up the instances but perhaps in your case it doesn't happen. I would suggest submitting in issue to the repo
