How to stop newtab-page flickering/refreshing when opening new tabs by ctrl-clicking thumbnails?

Often when opening new tabs from thumbnails in newtab-page (about:newtab) the whole newtab-page refreshes itself or otherwise flickers. This sometimes causes that some new tabs are not opened when ctrl-clicking multiple thumbnails in a row. Does the newtab-page recalculate after every click what thumbnails it should show and this could cause the flickering effect? (Although I don't see changes in thumbnail order.)

Hi FFanatic, Please update to version 32 to see if this is still happening. Go to About Firefox and click the update button.
