 html file demonstrating the bug

A specific combination of large fonts with fixed positioning causes stuttering, ugly artifacts, incorrect cropping and erroneous z-indexing. I've attached an html file to illustrate these problems.

Firefox and Chrome on desktop have no problem rendering the page. However, most mobile browsers break in some way, including webkit-backed ones. Some of the problems:

* The tiled background does not stay fixed
* Text on a lower z-index appears in front for some time, becomes correct after some sort of refresh occurs
* Artifacts appear after scrolling down pretty far, and scrolling back up

This is video of interaction with Firefox, but Chrome reacts *very* similar.
