Please stop setting all the flags, it is a waste and unnecessary.

This is probably actually a result of bug 1588464 which was an intentional change to avoid flickering. Not sure we can do much about it, but NI to Marco.

yeah, we can't fix this easily it would be a huge amount of work. We must delay the result here, it's only apparent lag, it's not a "real" performance problem. Unless someone comes with a magic idea, this is a P5.
