Chromium 76.xxxxx works slow after update

After last upgrade, I've noticed huge performance drop in Chromium in youtube, not sure if it is related to the chromium by self. It is feeling like slow motion, 3-10 seconds delay between button press or scroll. I tried ungoogled chromium, result same. Opera works relatively same as before. Are you experiencing same ? Did I miss some new annonces with CPU security issues that I have to disable ?

cpu i3 7100u, 12 gb ram, ssd
standard kennel 5.2.9-arch1-1-ARCH
EFI with grub loader
kernel arguments : rw nmi_watchdog=0 quiet noresume net.ifnames=0 intel.iommu=off spectre_v2=off nopti pti=off l1tf=off mds=off audit=0 nospec_store_bypass_disable no_stf_barrier noibrs noibpb noretpoline intel_idle.max_cstate=1 mitigations=off i915.enable_psr=0 i915.enable_fbc=1 i915.enable_guc=3 i915.enable_gvt=0 i915.fastboot=1 i915.enable_ips=0 drm.atomic=1 i915.nuclear_pageflip=1 loglevel=2 rd.systemd.show_status=auto rd.udev.log_priority=2

Remove all of these i915 parameters, you are essentially treading in unsupported territory mucking around with those.
