30% of dropped frame on 1080p60fps video on Linux

Project Member Reported by yini...@chromium.org, Sep 20 2016

Issue description

Version: 55.0.2859.0
OS: Linux

There are more than 30% of dropped frame on 1080p60fps video on YouTube (both H264 and VP9). This is a recent regression. It regress somewhere between 54.0.2832.2 and 54.0.2840.27.
This issue only repro on Linux. Thought the dropped frame number is very high (e.g 408/1231), the playback quality is not obviously bad, no stutter or choppy video/audio is observed.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) navigate to either of these two videos

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbiOazijZVQ

(2)switch to 1080p60fps
(3)bring up Stat for Nerd

What is the expected output?
dropped frame is reasonable

What do you see instead?
dropped frame is about 30% of decoded frame, e.g 500/1548

 
Do you see this on dev channel? Are you able to bisect?
It repro on beta already (54.0.2840.27). I can bisect after I finish test pass.

Graphic performance on my linux system is not great in the last few days -- so I think there may be some bigger issue going on. Hopefully the bisect will reveal something interesting, +graphics folk.
It seems weird. I tried to install the same build (54.0.2840.27) as stable instead of beta or dev channel, the dropped frame number becomes very normal, e.g, 33/3349  
Is it possible the stable build is signed? 

I still see this issue on 55.0.2873.0. Sorry I am unable to bi-sect to the possible regression build though.

Nothing we can do without a bisect or repro. You should report feedback in YouTube though when you see this in case it's a bad experiment.
