Q. Does anyone know where this directory is, where extensions are stored? I've tried searching, but no luck. I need it to install a greasemonkey script that only works if I manually move it to the extensions directory.
Thanks in advance.

A. As you already probably know, program installations on Linux don't reside in a single directory. So you probably need to read-up on how the basic Linux directory hierarchy works.
In any case, where Chrome is installed depends, as it depends on your distro and which package you installed it from. But for my distro (Gentoo), Chromium is installed in the default way -- spread out in various folders in the /usr directory:
/usr/bin is where the `chromium' launcher is kept.
/usr/lib/chromium-browser is where all the binaries and data required for use by Chromium is kept -- that can essentially be considered where Chrome is really installed.
/usr/share is where the Application entry, and where the `man' entries are kept for Chrome.
But for some installations of Chrome, it's installed in /opt instead, rather than in the various directories in /usr. And like I said, it depends on which distro and which package you installed it in. But if you look around, you should be able to find it.
Also, since I know you're on a Debian-based system (which uses .deb files), you can find-out where the installed files for Chrome are. Just double-click the ".deb" file you used to install Chrome, and see if you can find a section that'll tell you all of the installed files. I'm not on Ubunutu or Debian right now, but I know it's there.
Now, as for where your user-specific data is kept, they reside in two locations:
/home/user/.config/chromium is where your user data is kept, just like on Windows.
/home/user/.cache/chromium is where Chrome's cache files are kept.

Does Google Chrome run faster on a Mac, PC, or Linux?
Q. Would the architecture in a Mac PC or Linux variate the performance of the web browser Google Chrome?
A. Of course it'll vary, but only slightly on each OS but it's really your hardware that matters. (Like RAM and the processor.)
Macs are built for multi-tasking, PCs handle it smoothly, and I haven't tried Chrome on Linux yet.
