This has only been tested on trunk so far. Not sure when it started.
1) Ensure repaint dots are enabled in the Preferences window (under Developer Mode)
2) Notice the that the Project Browser busy repaints even when not needed.
3) You can enable the Diagnostics Switch: Editor->Repain Requested to see the callstack of where the repaint is requested every frame. See below.
// Repaint again if we are in preview icon mode and previews are being loaded
if (!ListMode && AssetPreview.IsLoadingAssetPreviews(...)
m_Owner.Repaint();
Callstack: Repaint requested for ProjectBrowser.
Check the call stack to find the root cause. Ensure 'Stack Trace Logging -> Log -> Full' is enabled in the Console window menu.
