Thanks for testing this. one site that suffers with webkit I noticed is
reddit I would add that to your test sites.

I think I found the issues nouaveau in that the those drivers currently
do not support multi threaded OpenGL which qtwebengine uses. Oddly
though I do not need to set QT_XCB_FORCE_SOFTWARE_OPENGL in my
monolithic QT package with qtwebengine. But that package is using the
latest QT 5.14.0 and it's possible it's doing some auto detection and
switching software acceleration on nouveau anyways. I'll have to
investigate this further down the road.
