For some reason, black boxes are displaying in random spaces in Chrome (latest build).
Some of these boxes are appearing outside of the main container, whereas some are appearing inline, covering content blocks. They appear randomly, usually after scrolling, and will often disappear when opening the inspector, hovering over elements, or scrolling down and back up.
For reference, there are some animations, box-shadows (which have been disabled with no luck), linear gradients, and position: fixed elements on the page, although this is not an issue with browsers other than Chrome.
This has been widely reported in user testing, although I have not been able to conjure up a fix. I am not sure if it is a CPU or graphics card issue, as the site is relatively lightweight and I am browsing with a new laptop with 16gb ram. My old Mac Mini, with 4gb of ram, does not produce this issue.
Any pointers would be most appreciated.
Update: This was a bug in Chrome and was fixed: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=142038
eddz filed the issue at crbug.com/new and over 40 people starred the ticket to follow along. It led to a few separate fixes in Chrome by the engineering team.
