Default flickering scroll

during playback (with continuous scrolling and automatically scroll view during playback selected in options) my scroll bar is a flickering yellow line for several bars until it turns to a solid yellow bar.
Any ideas what is up with that?

Play cursor will often if not even most of the time flicker when it's moving. However, with your settings it's only moving up to the middle of the view and then stays there while the project scrolls under it. In that state it doesn't flicker.

This flickering happens because the refresh rate of drawing the moving cursor is not high enough to do it really smoothly. Afaik, it's a tradeoff, because higher refresh rate for it could on the other hand take away from the overall performance, depending.
