This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
Custom CSS is added to a View but takes some time to take effect, causing page jank.
Solution:
For technical reasons the custom CSS is added via JavaScript. The editors in a View can take any valid HTML, and so the custom CSS can be added directly inside style tags and will be printed directly in the page source and be effective immediately.

Hi Rainer
The delay happens because of the specifics of how we implemented adding custom CSS to a View to be valid HTML prior to HTML 5 (which requires adding CSS style tags only in the page head), but we intend to change this so that there will not be any such delay unless your site must be HTML4 valid.
In the meantime you should know that you can add HTML markup to any of the editors in the View, and can add style tags directly to one of the the View editors.
I would probably add it to the final Output Editor so that it was less obtrusive, as in the screenshot.
