Posted video replicating this issue. Happens when you scroll while page is loading. Gets stuck if page not fully loaded when you scroll

@vsskanth I was still unable to reproduce the issue following your extra info regarding the steps to reproduce. If the page is not fully loaded and scrolling is performed in a thread, no issues are encountered.
