Extremely high CPU usage for anything that uses canvas elements

Browser Support Desktop Support

Description of the issue:
At some point within the last year, I noticed that Brave (and only Brave) was using tons of CPU when I would go on sites that have canvas elements. Here is a website that hosts a simple game in a canvas element https://mogee.lamdera.app/. When I am on this tab in Brave, I’m using ~40% of my total processing power. With all other browsers I have tried (FF, GC, Chromium), The impact on my processing is maybe 5%.

Brave Version( check About Brave):
Version 1.64.109 Chromium: 123.0.6312.58 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Been having the same issue, 100% usage on one thread and a bit more (around 10-20%) on another 3-4 threads while having some websites open (doesn’t need to be the current tab). Doesn’t seem to be specifically related to canvas though, as this website was the one causing the issue for me and it does not have any canvas element. It also affects other chrome-based browsers like ungoogled-chromium (firefox and firefox-based worked fine).
