I see a few stagnate bugs related to this, so I'm filing a new bug.

Nexus 7, using Nightly, I get blurry text after panning down the page a few times:
URL: http://www.newyorker.com/tech/elements/group-rules-web
I saw this on Cracked:

http://www.cracked.com/blog/5-ways-alcohol-industry-tricks-you-into-drinking-garbage/

It fixed itself, but notably it only fixed itself after a reflow:



10:08:44 <@rnewman> worth noting: at least in my case, seems to be related to resizing content. that article had lots of lazy-loaded images that were smaller
                    than their placeholders
10:08:58 <@rnewman> every time I scrolled past one, I got blurred text until the image loaded and was swapped in
10:09:08 <@rnewman> then the text moved up and repainted sharp

On my Nexus 5 (5.0), trunk build, I get blurred tiles on scroll but they do resolve. I can't tell if the blurred tiles are lasting longer than normal though. Eideticker tests?
Bug 1115434 has a reproducible URL where the page continues to remain blurred. Kevin can reproduce on a Nexus 5 across all channels. This sounds like another shit shouldn't be blurred longstanding issue. Can we track this for 35?

This is working for me.

Richard - Is this still happening for you?

Same symptoms as before, yes. Reproduced on play.google.com on today's Nightly.

Does someone have a screenshot handy? I'm wondering if it's low-res blurry or something else.

I think this is the issue.
Similar to bug 1115434, I don't think this is low-res blurry. If it were low-res blurry it would be more blurry and at 50% opacity.

This is working for me now. If anyone else can still reproduce this, please reopen.

It might be worth testing on a build prior to bug 1120211 landing to see if that was responsible, or if it was something else. If it was that bug, then it would be worth uplifting, I think.

I am still seeing this in today's Nightly; twice today.

In one instance the text went blurry, and fixed itself after ~10 seconds idle.

In another instance the text went blurry, I scrolled further and it went slightly blurrier, I scrolled again and it stayed about the same, and never fixed itself.

I can provide screenshots if necessary.
