After a closer look in the compiled binary chrome.dll, can be easy eliminated Local State [client-id, timestamp] as well RLZ feature and the call to rlz runtime.

copy /y locals~1 Profile
cd Chrome
chrome.exe --enable-sync --renderer-startup-dialog --plugin-startup-dialog --disable-logging --enable-fastback --always-enable-dev-tools --no-first-run --enable-remote-fonts --enable-web-resources --disable-new-tab-first-run --no-default-browser-check --thumbnail-store --enable-xss-auditor --enable-tabtastic2 --search-in-omnibox-hint --enable-local-storage --enable-session-storage --enable-databases --enable-application-cache --enable-renderer-accessibility --enable-user-scripts  --enable-extensions --user-data-dir="../Profile" --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/531.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.3 Safari/531.9.1"

some switches need at least the latest trunk build to compile! for example: --tabtastic2


BleachBit will be good if it will support the default Chrome Profile folder to vacuum all sqlite databases same as by Firefox.
For example file \Profile\Safe Browsing Bloom

The database was compacted using VACUUM statement.
Before compacting:
 Page Count    = 14703
 Database Size = 15055872 bytes
After compacting:
 Page Count    = 9313
 Database Size = 9536512 bytes

Popup Blocker:


How to operate Adblock and element block:
Click Alt + B on the advertisement. If you click and hold Alt, then will not count/show the number of elements on the page, which is sometimes useful. Alt + E allows you to edit or delete styles.

How to Operate FlashBlock:
Blocks Flash, similar as the expansion Flashblock. Turn off/on the flash on the current site, using hotkey Alt + F while holding over a flash element or click on the (play) symbol on flash elements to start them (same as in opera turbo).

Show original Image size / Zoom on re-sized images and show meta info as tooltip in websites:
Hold mouse cursor over an image and press shift key.

How to operate show passwords in form fields:
Hold mouse over input box, the ***** becomes readable Password.



Highlights in short:

+ enabled user scripts in profile folder
+ enabled extensions
+ send IE 8 as User Agent
+ Overwrite unique user id and info with null each time Chrome start
+ added Adblock, Flashblock, Element hider,...etc...
