Hi Chad, thanks for elaborating why you disabled GPU usage. I'd love to
turn it back on somehow without the need for rebuilding chromium myself
with default options except for the GPU being disabled.

Is there any chance we can get back GPU enabled chromium anytime soon?
Or maybe Ubuntu could offer two packages "chromium-browser-stable" and
"chromium-browser-experimental". The latter would then have the
optimizations turned on.

Another bug report is related to this one here, so I will post a link
for reference: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-
browser/+bug/1463598
