Sounds like Chrome just has its own framerate throttling which works
independently from sync-to-vblank.

It's possible that the mutter framerate doesn't match the refresh rate (you can
check by setting GALLIUM_HUD=fps for the mutter process), but it's also
possible it's simply due to unfortunate interaction between the Chrome and
mutter frame timings.

Not really. By setting vblank_mode=0, you're forcing mutter to run in a way it
doesn't intend. If doing so breaks something, that can hardly be considered a
mutter bug, and you get to keep all the pieces. :)
