I was able to reproduce on my Moto G5 (it is sometimes subtle) and took a profile: https://share.firefox.dev/3u78Yzk

I'm gonna guess graphics for a first pass.

I can't really reproduce on Sony 10 II, or at least I can't see difference to Chrome. But based on the profile (comment 1) there are some slow composites

I can reproduce stuttering whilst zooming out, but not whilst zooming in. I think this is therefore related to the "low-quality pinch-zoom" mode, which is only enabled on nightly. Disabling that improves things for me.
