Public bug reported:

When I start Ubuntu, the touchpad scrolling (using two fingers) works
great, but after some time (usually hours) the scrolling becomes very
glitchy. The scrolling starts to feel very unresponsive and I have to do
the scrolling motion two to three times to scroll the normal amount on a
page or document. It feels like only small parts of the actual finger
motion converts to scrolling and the rest is cut off. Sometimes (rarely)
the scrolling just dies completely. Booting fixes this issue, but often
the issue is back very quickly after boot. Unfortunately I have no steps
on how to replicate this issue.

This is a new-ish problem that started happening after an update
sometime a few months ago and did not appear in the first 18.04 release
versions.
