In fennec code we currently zero the viewport for remote tabs -

Appears to be perf related, similar to bug 893015. We should investigate doing the same for local tabs.

I posted the patch for this, but after talking to mbrubeck, we don't actually want this.
It was done originally for Fennec to save memory on devices that only had 256MB. Zeroing the displayport does save memory but probably will impact performance negatively on devices that do have a lot of memory, which are most Win8 device.
I did notice that this makes the live tab all white, which is expected as well, so even if we wanted to land this we'd have to wait for Bug 831440.
