768984 - Flinging a page that is already scrolling causes the page to stop scrolling momentarily

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Toolbar, defect)

Description

[Chris Peterson [:cpeterson]]

STR:
1. Load a long web page such as timecube.com
2. Quickly fling the page to scroll
3. As the page scrolls down, keep flinging

AR:
The page will sometimes stop scrolling for a moment before handling the new fling event. This doesn't seem like a problem on the ICS stock browser.

This is a subjective bug, but I think it is a regression in Nightly. The momentary stops seem to happen more when scroll down then up a page.

Waiting for regression range before tracking decision

I cannot reproduce this issue on the latest Nightly, on any of both pages mentioned above. Chris and Aaron, are you able to reproduce this? Was this bug fixed by another patch?

This appears as fixed now having tested on mozilla-beta (15.0, beta 1); GN 4.1.1.

If this was caused by screenshot repainting it may have been fixed by bug 766647. If this is the case it will probably still be happening on current aurora.
