unfortunately I am unable to reproduce this problem on Debian 8.4 with
urxvt 9.22 and i3 4.8. It might be caused by a graphic driver bug: urxvt
image code is based on XRender, which uses hardware acceleration when
available. I think we had similar reports in the past but I don't
remember the details. Which graphic driver do you use?
