Description
Issue is reproduced on 80, 90, 110, 120% of scale. When element is hovered and tooltip shows up, the tooltip content text jumps a bit.
- The issue is present in the latest release.
- I have searched the issues of this repository and believe that this is not a duplicate.
Current Behavior 😯
This behaviour can be check on material-ui page.

Expected Behavior 🤔
No jumping, text is displayed with no issues.
Steps to Reproduce 🕹
Since I found it even on material-ui page I assume codesandbox is not required to verify.
Steps:
- Scale the page to be either 80%, 90%, 110% or 120%
- Find element wrapped with Tooltip
- Hover over this element
