On this page the lower section of the page constantly blinks/disappears when I scroll with APZ turned on when I'm using my main profile.

It looks like I need to have e10s enabled too.
Blocks: apz-desktop, e10s

Yeah, APZ is disabled if e10s is disabled. Also, what platform are you seeing this on?
No longer blocks: e10s
(And also what version/build of FF?)

Also it appears that it affects MacOS users too:

I didn't see anything unusual on that reddit page and where it links to.

Did you try the url for this bug? If you don't experience it there yours is not the same bug.
I can repro the original report (comment 0) and based on paint-flashing I think this is again caused by the checkerboard-background-painting code in the compositor. I'll investigate more.

Attached patch Patch (deleted) — Splinter Review
Truncating the displayport margins during the float->int conversion was causing the displayport to be smaller than expected. If you scrolled near the edge of the page on pages of certain dimensions it would result in the APZ code checkerboarding and drawing a background. This fixes it. Note that I left the "budget" amount as an int; we probably still want to err on the side of a smaller budget. In most cases the displayport margins aren't hitting the budget anyway so it doesn't make a difference.
