I confirm the bug. I remember it at least back to Gutsy. This problem is really annoying. Enabling the crossfade in Rythmbox seems to be a good workaround but the problem exists since whenever I scroll a page in Firefox the CPU hits 50% (that's one of the two cores) and the scrolling is laggy (meaning I can scroll very fast up and down many times, then stop and watch FF scroll for many seconds). I also think that it happens for any type of scrolling that involves moving pictures or active controls around.
