Upon updating chromium 72.0.3626.121-1 -> 73.0.3683.75-1, I am seeing really choppy scrolling via the wheel mouse. Downgrading back to 72.0.3626.121 restores the smooth scrolling effect I am used to seeing.

I didn't see thing via googling specific to this version. Thoughts are appreciated.

Nice! I disabled it on the new version but still experience the visual artifacts when scrolling.

"via the wheel mouse"
For clarification: this also affects scrolling w/ the scrollbar?

No, the scroll bar is unaffected as is PgUp and PgDn. Only the wheel on the mouse.

Is chrome://flags/#smooth-scrolling enabled or disabled? Does it make a difference?

It's set to "default" but if I set it to "disabled" on the latest version of chromium, most if not all of the visual artifacts are gone. Nice find, thank you.
