Setting it to 9999 solves the problem. It's just not intuitive to me why. Setting that var to 0 sporadically re-centers the cursor... setting it to 50 causes cursor to pop to top of buffer every time cursor hits bottom, setting it to 9999 causes desired behavior (at least in my view). Oh well, at least it works. Thanks for the help.
