I assume they just decided to change the wording since scrolling 6 lines at a time vs. 3 (that was the default in the past, I think) will result in faster scrolling. I hadn't noticed a change, but then I guess I was just content with the default and hadn't looked at that in awhile.

This happens no matter how wide I resize the window. This is just a small irritant, but I wondered if anyone else had noticed it (or is it somehow a product of my video card).
