How did you see that? I'm currently using 300,250,250 because the 
default parameters seemed unbalanced but I still think *something* is 
off. I have no idea though if this has to with the emboldening function 
or my mind playing tricks on me. I also noticed that without subpixel 
rendering, glyphs look a tad smudgy. That may be relevant for distros 
that refuse to ship subpixel rendering by default.
