offhand, it sounds as if it's flickering when doing partial display of
results, that is, clearing the screen before painting it.  If I can
reproduce the problem, I can make a better guess (whether it's something
we can fix).  What's the url, etc.?  (Also, I assume you're using the
same environment settings as in your earlier report - is the display
character set to UTF-8 still?)
