Just thinking...
Is it possible to render the browser in a "double buffer" way like in games to avoid apparent partial refresh?
freD.this smell like a XY problem, are you experiencing issues with your preferred browser? Let the author know!

but to reply to original question anyway, I think all current browsers have a mechanism like that. Even ncurses application have an internal buffer used before outputting to the screen, which acts in fact like a double buffer.-- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail. Please excuse my brevity.
