Have you tried this test using the enhanced rendering quality? It's disabled by default and only changable in Registry or by using Dmitry's X1 Tune utility. It would be interesting to see how your torture test looks in that mode.

I have requested from Charles a description of the differences and benefits and drawbacks to the enhanced rendering and asked why it is not the default setting.

When I hear back I'll share it here or maybe Charles can answer that question here.

As far as FreeHand. I know that Flash has a pretty decent anti-aliasing engine and I suspect that FreeHand shares the same technology.
