Steps to reproduce the problem:
not sure, probably depends on my environment.  

What is the expected behavior?
non laggy text entry

What went wrong?
Chrome was slow to load certain sites like gmail and asana.  and then very slow, laggy text entry.  like hit keys, wait a second or more before the text appears.  This would sometime go away on Chrome restart but always came back.  Tried reinstalling to no avail.  Turned off hardware acceleration in the settings, that seems to have done the trick for now.  

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 54.0.2840.99  Channel: stable
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 23.0 r0

I am on intel onboard graphics - no separate graphics card.  Seems similar to this bug which is marked fixed https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=395253
