[Bug 1578853] [NEW] Firefox blotchy graphics in Google Maps

[David Cary]

Public bug reported:

Google maps are displayed in Firefox with blotches.  It can take a few
seconds for the blotches to stablize.  It occurs both with the symbolic
maps and the satellite images, and typically gets worse with more
zoomed-in views.  The blotches seem to be rather random.

I don't have a problem with any other kind of graphics or video, Firefox
or otherwise.

I will attach or otherwise post three example screenshots.
