Was scrolling down my browser history today and noticed the scroll bar was slightly jumping. I thought i was hallucinating or something, so i recorded it to confirm im not crazy. Investigating the source of the scroll bar jumping, i scrolled down to find the point of where the entries were disappearing and reappearing.. it was really trippy like it was breathing in and out... i'm still staring at it after many hours wondering how this happened from a programmers point of view... im not sure if its an issue with mozilla or if its my harddrive that needs to be reseated or something.. but this anomoly has me interested now, im wondering if anyone else has seen this glitch of the spazzing entries in browser history

That isn't happening here. Try restarting in troubleshoot mode.
