Title:
  High CPU load (above 50%) on Xorg process when browsing low graphic
  intensive sites

Status in Chromium Browser:
  Incomplete
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  While using grooveshark.com, I noticed a big bump in the Xorg process CPU usage after selecting its tab. It jumps from the usual >5% to more than 50%.
  The webpage is not graphical intensive, but the interface is all HTML5.
  I'm attaching a video that shows the effect. Note that the recording also adds some weight to the Xorg process, but it's still noticeable, from 20% to 50%.
