I am obviously missing something, so please enlighten me. Why should antialiasing make a difference with respect to bandwidth? I thought Render cached glyphs on the server, and that a glyph was an ARGB image. If that's the case, the client should only have to transmit the index of the glyph is wants drawn, and this would also be the case for non-antialiased text, so I don't see why there would be any difference.
