Description
Expected Behavior
I did a function like this:

These words should show one by one.
Actual Behavior
But when those words showed, the screen flickered.
ps: I'm sorry, this .gif cannot catch "flicker", maybe you can try it yourself.
I tried it at scratch2.0, the screen did not flicker.

And I tried another function at scratch3.0, the screen did not flicker.

Operating System and Browser
Mac OS 10.13.3 Chrome 68.0.3440.106

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in Scratch 3.0 on the reported Mac OS and Chrome setup, using consecutive “Say [hello] for [x] seconds” blocks. Compare the behavior with Scratch 2.0 and the alternate Scratch 3.0 example; done means the speech bubbles show each word in sequence without flickering or disappearing between blocks.
