High CPU load in webRTC video connections

Reported by sprachla...@gmail.com, Oct 7 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/53.0.2785.143 Safari/537.36

Example URL:
e.g. https://apprtc.appspot.com

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. go to e.g. https://apprtc.appspot.com
2. start a video call and observe CPU load
3. 

What is the expected behavior?
CPU load should rise moderately

What went wrong?
On a webRTC video call, CPU load rises about 30% as soon as the connection is established. The CPU load for a video call used to be much lower than this.

Did this work before? Yes On older Chrome releases, up to M52 I think

Is it a problem with Flash or HTML5? HTML5

Does this work in other browsers? N/A 

Chrome version: 53.0.2785.143  Channel: stable
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 23.0 r0

There isn't enough specific data in this bug, so I'm closing.
That's not to say that we're not improving performance all the time but this bug is simply too vague. What could be eating CPU is a number of things and specifying which thing and what the expectations are, would make the bug more useful.
