I seem to notice on chromium snap shots recently that when I clear the cache, then browse to a forum page with a skin, I get source "show through." The source is all jumbled like the browser has a lag before rendering.

I tried the experimental GPU accleration settings on and off. Makes no difference. Once something is in the cache it seems to go away.

Both windows 7 forums and vista forums exhibit this. Some other forums come up normally so I'm thinking perhaps they aren't "skinned."

Just curious.

At this moment I'm using 17.0.940.0 chromium snap shot.

I occasionally get this in FF also last couple weeks here. Just chalked it up to a slow network connection on my part, but now I'm not so sure.

I notice it intermittently on other sites. My previous long time chromium snap shot from Oct. 4 wasn't doing it. Weird. :)

I kept the Oct. 4 snap shot for a long time because LastPass login kept phasing out with any newer snap shot. Updated to LastPass 1.80.3 today and it seems to be stabilized. Dunno' if it's some scheme to accelerate the rendering they are all using? Or maybe just coincidence.

edit: I'm still running Firefox 5.0. It doesn't seem to be doing it.

edit2: I reverted to chromium 16.0.900.0 then cleared the cache. Not doing it on any sites. It's got to be something where they are not setting a blank page or something in the rendering.

So far this Oct. 4 snap shot is "last known good" for me. :)
