Screen flickers when hovering on li elements - a possible relief

I had a list of nested un-ordered list which were working fine until I made a few changes.

I am speaking about nested ul and li tags.

I spent an hour trying to figure out what was causing the issue and had been inspecting through the style associated with the page and nothing seemed to help.

The culprit was the chrome's developer tool itself. I turned off the developer tool and the list worked like charm and the screen flickering went away.

That is a bummer. Though it is not a code level solution, I am relieved cos now I know that the testers  wont be bothering me in respect to this pest :)
