[data grid] Scroll performance feels slower in Chrome compared to Firefox

Duplicates

• I have searched the existing issues

Latest version

• I have tested the latest version

Steps to reproduce 🕹

Link to live example:

https://m5190q.csb.app/
https://codesandbox.io/s/elated-neco-m5190q?file=/demo.tsx

Steps:

1. Visit the live demo in Chrome and Firefox, it's the free version of @mui/x-data-grid on CodeSandbox
2. Scroll the grid up and down
3. It's not a super dramatic effect, but Chrome has a jankier scroll

Note: might be a dupe of #569, can close this if it is known or foldable into another issuer, or just beyond the scope of this library

Current behavior 😯

It feels like Chrome stutters more during scroll but Firefox is quite smooth. It could be a deep browser behavior that MUI cannot really actionably fix, and in that case, can close.

Not sure if relevant but here are some performance profiler screenshots

Chrome: has opaque dispatchEvent, might not be the full stack though and has yellow and red dropped frames (the 16.7ms boxes)

Firefox, the JS stack (yellow) looks approx the same as Chrome, but the renderer (green) is ticking away 60fps(not that experienced with firefox profiler though)

Expected behavior 🤔

Approximately equal performance between Chrome and Firefox

Context 🔦

I am trying to display as much data in the grid at once, so approx 100 at a time, but the scrolling stutters a bit. It would be great to have smooth performance

The CodeSandbox is using the development build of React, which is much slower compared to the production version. Do you see the same degraded performance in https://mui.com/x/react-data-grid/#commercial-version?

this is probably a factor, I don't see a big diff at the link and also in a prod build of the codesandbox downloaded locally. thanks for the tip, can probably close for now :)
