Description
### Steps to reproduce
1. Scroll in chat
### Hardware acceleration/GPU
Hardware acceleration does not affect it, but the issue is significantly worse with it off.
Likewise, GPU model does not affect it between AMD or Nvidia.
### Outcome
#### What did you expect?
Normal scrolling.
#### What happened instead?
Scrolling is stuttery, slow, and causes lots of screen tearing and visual artifacts.
### Operating system
Windows 11/Windows 10
### Application version
Element version: 1.11.101
### How did you install the app?
Official Windows installer
### Homeserver
_No response_
### Will you send logs?
Yes
### Additional info
This behavior is not present on my other Windows 11 install with version 1.11.99. It seems that either .100 or .101 introduced it.
To confirm, the moment I updated my outdated .99 install to .101, the issue showed up on that computer too.
Especially watch the top left corner.
