Hi
I'm looking at how we support AA for text in the Flying Saucer library. Before
Java 6 (we support back to 1.4 for the library), we found AA to be pretty slow,
hence we had it turned off by default. I just turned it back on and found
performance, at least with JDK 6, to be great--now my
AA text used to be very slow once upon a time but I think I sped it up
mostly in 1.5 not 6
There could be other reasons why its 'faster' now. ie better detection
that rendering
involves readback from the surface (not specifically for text) which
can be slow
on AGP buses ..
As for the best
