Safari smooth scrolling a bit shaky of late

An EXTREMELY small annoyance. Safari (and Webkit nightly) for me had very smooth scrolling - the best of all! Of late, it seems to have become just a bit shaky and rattly on many pages (e.g., Twitter, Yahoo!, Techmeme, all with multiple links). Probably a buffering problem.



For now, I've switched to Firefox, where this problem seems not to occur.



Has anyone else noticed this?



FWIW: MacOSX 10.6.1, all the latest updates; Webkit 4.0.3 (at the moment 63519 r48794)

    I've occasionally experienced the same issue in browsers and games. I see sort of flashing line that disappears as soon as I've stopped scrolling. I know that when I have this problem in a game turning on vertical sync solves it. But I have no idea how you'd fix it in a browser.



    I'm running 10.6.1 with the latest versions of Safari and Firefox and they both scroll very smoothly.
