White Rectangular Spaces At The Bottom & The Middle of The Screen

[ghost]

Description

While opening a new website from a new tab (or sometimes with the currently opened tab also), I see some awkward rectangular white spaces, occurring at the bottom of the windows and sometimes even in the middle. 50 per cent of the time, while opening a website, these gets showed. These blanks are not specific to a certain website and are random! They were not present before the 1.29.76 update!

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open 10-15 tabs
2. Type a search term or enter URL's (all of different websites)
3. Chances are you'll also get these blanks!

Actual result:

White rectangular spaces gets showed up!

Expected result:

White rectangular spaces shouldn't showed!

Reproduces how often:

@Nihal247 I only see the one rectangular image on the New Tab Page. What were the other three rectangles? You've got a a few extensions too, I'm not sure if any of those are causing those rectangles to show up.

Yes these rectangular images mostly gets showed on the New Tab Page. Those other three rectangles were the same too. Sometimes, even a big rectangular box also gets displayed, as you can see in 00:37 of the video. And yes, I disabled all the extensions and it didn't changed anything. These boxes weren't displayed before v1.29.76!

Note, possibly hardware acceleration issue. @Nihal247 Can you try turning off hardware acceleration brave://settings/system and see if you're still seeing those white rectangles.

I turned it off, but I'm still seeing it.
