Relative line numbers require a full redraw of the window when you scroll, because every line's number changes. Emacs will actually redraw only the numbers themselves, and maybe also some general window decorations. Not sure why that happens to you during scrolling without line numbers, it doesn't seem to happen to me. Do you see that in "emacs -Q"?
