I do not have that problem, minimize/maximize no problem, but I had
found the culprit in my case, it could be or not a "bug", maybe a
windows listview strange thing or a missunderstood by my side.

I had write a little test project and compiled also in Delphi 7. The
test add 6000 entries, updates them, scroll from first to last, and
delete them.

The scroll flickers a bit more in Lazarus than in Delphi. My problem
was the beginupdate/endupdate which many times only one line is
updated/added/deleted and the endupdate forces a repaint which
inserts more flickering than not using them.
