Chromium lag with Intel i915 drivers

I have Intel HD graphics card with i915. On any distro using chromium lags a lot especially when scrolling and this is due to high CPU use. On Windows the exact same browser and website works fine. Has anyone had this similar issue? If so was this issue still present in Clear Linux?

Are you actually using ClearLinux?

Yes I have. See https://community.clearlinux.org/t/intel-i915-random-freeze/2873

With kernel lts2018, it is fine

No as I don’t have a large usb drive to fit it in.

Did you have freeze ups or just lag in general for chromium-based?

just lag with firefox.
