Screen/windows only partially update

Mostly happens in terminals. I notice it most when running irssi in screen on a remote host. I switch irc channels which should repaint the entire window (as the whole chat has changed) but only small portions of the screen get drawn. It doesn't happen all the time, but often enough to be annoying. I can rule out screen and irssi because it also happens on the local machine if I open a terminal and just do simple 'ls'. I can get a terminal window where (for example) the left 50% of the window contains content, the left 50% is just black. If I press enter a few times, or open another unrelated app window (like shutter to take a screenshot of the oddness) it repaints the window.
