Hello,
ElementaryOS running vanilla Ubuntu 14.04 kernel 3.13.0-117-generic and xserver-
I upgraded chromium-browser to version 58.0.3029.

I'm seeing the same on a laptop running trusty with an intel GM965 GPU. Version 53 has hardware- accelerated support for most graphic features, version 58 doesn't.
The "problems detected" section of chrome://gpu says:
Mesa drivers older than 10.4.3 is crash prone on Linux Intel i965gm: 462426
And it links to https:/ /bugs.chromium. org/p/chromium/ issues/ detail? id=462426.
Trusty has mesa 10.1.3. So this is expected.
@indigocat: would you mind attaching the entire output of chrome://gpu (can be saved as an html page)?
