Steps to reproduce:

The graphic ui glitch usually happens every couple of days randomly. I saw the blog post to help find the bug so I tried to do things to force it. I got it to happen three times in a row. One thing that was different when I tested this is the glitch only happens on the tab/url bar. On the other random occurrences the glitch causes black boxes on website page as well.

  1. Open a session with a lot of website tabs (until the tab bar scrolls).
  2. Use AHK to open/close tabs 200+ times in quick succession (300ms delay ctrl-t/ctrl-w)
  3. Browse normally for 40-60mins then ui glitch appears suddenly when you hover over something that creates a popup textbox (tab/url/alt txt).

Actual results:

Tabs are blank with missing images and/or url bar cut off. I redact some stuff in screenshots, but looking at tab bar is obvious. Screenshot #2 shows it the most.
