there are some pages which scroll quite slow. examples are
http://www.webstandards.org/resources.html
http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/complexspiral/demo.html

if you look at these examples, they both have a background picture which stays
still when scrolling, so I guess this might be the reason.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/complexspiral/demo.html

2. scroll with the scrollbar up and down

Actual Results:  page scrolls slowly

Expected Results:  page scrolls fast

I saw this effect on Linux. when asking in IRC some windows user could reproduce
the problem, some did not.
My system is an P3-500, Xfree4.x, Linux 2.4, Tnt2-m64...
adding perf keyword to show, that this is an performance problem
Keywords: perf
may or may not be related to bug 98252 (on the surface it doesn't look related
but it seem to give similar effects)
There's an old tracking bug for these: bug 38639

WFM: both URL's scroll smooth and quick on a current CVS build, linux.
P3/500, 2.4.2, XFree86 4.0.3, nVidia 0.1251
Does not seem related to bug 98252 - that bug i see all too well.
fixing typo in the summary, btw I'm seeing this too in Linux with 0.9.4,
latest-trunk...
(and I've been experiencing this in http://www.webstandards.org/resources.html
since 0.9.2 or before (I told jur to add that URL here :))
