Peter Hull commented on NETBEANS-3785:
--------------------------------------
For information: a workround suggested by David Green on the mailing list is:
{noformat}
I mitigate most of it by right-clicking on the image and choosing to
disable “drop shadow”.{noformat}
The relevant code for rendering the text with drop shadow is here:
[https://github.com/apache/netbeans/blob/820a688606a3777c673ab6cfb3d6638fe87471cc/platform/openide.actions/src/org/openide/actions/HeapView.java#L638-L680]
(there is a different code path when no drop shadow)

> Eirik Bakke confirms that this has been an issue for a long time. In
> particular, the memory gauge should be updated to look good on HiDPI/Retina
> displays.
