Is the output actually correct?

If I run that command and check for all the running chromium-browser
processes, I get:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AuE69LM_eZgjdGcyZDN2akt4SVdtV0xBM1E5LXNsX2c

or:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0AuE69LM_eZgjdGcyZDN2akt4SVdtV0xBM1E5LXNsX2c&output=html

or:

Ie. 37 processes with a total of 1500 MB.
Could that really be correct?
