Open new tab. Actual results: Often, almost always the search bar from the non-blank NTP is shown briefly. It's on MacBook 12". Not faster processor. On iMac with faster processor it happens less often. Expected results: It should just show a blank tab. It appears that it first renders the non-blank NTP, only to then remove elements from it. That's an odd order of events. Occasionally it also shows other elements before it removes them, such as items from the cog-menu.
