"stop rendering" is just my guess because checkerboard in the world of graphics design means transparency, something like a space of void that allows background images to be visible. Makes sense as my guess would be the zoom process actually involves the phone taking a screenshot of the page, resize it based on finger movement and then render the webpage based on zoom level.
The reason I wanna identify the rendering method is coz i wanna find a browser that has that implementation, and compare both rendering methods. Pretty sure the Sensation will not have that rendering style.
Unless, the whole thing is actually due to hardware acceleration (which I've read from youtube comments).
Anyway, by 'refocus' you mean the text become blur? Or 'text reflow'?
In SGS2, text reflow is not active in pinch-to-zoom, only works if you double tap, read from SGS2 owners in XDA.
While you doing a pinch-to-zoom, the text is not 'focused' yet until you release your finger, meaning the text you will see while pinching
is blur and jagged, once you release your finger, the text will look alright again.

I emailed maxis to ask about SGS II
They called me and basically it is a "still no news and keep waiting" (as expected), at least they didn't say "no" straightaway so that's not a bad news after all
I hope the same case happens like HTC Desire HD, everyone was expecting Maxis but end up Digi getting the phone, wahahaha
