Video of the flickering image

SUMMARY
***
In some posts, images flicker in front of the text when I resize the window to a too big size.
There are window sizes where the flickering stops after a few blinks within the flickering range.
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add this feed "https://events.ccc.de/feed"
2. Go to this post "Einladung zum Junghacker:innentag auf dem 37C3"
3. Play around with the size of the window

OBSERVED RESULT
The big red image starts to flicker at a certain window size. For some sizes, the flickering eventually stops, for others, it keeps flickering.

EXPECTED RESULT
The image is stable for all window sizes

What, the flickering is not visible in the recording, there the image just disappears.

Here, you can see a bit more flickering in the beginning, but let me tell you, it actually flickers more than visible here.

Can confirm this on latest build from git master.
