On the text demo, zooming too much causes the text to appear like this:

Changing options doesn't make much of a difference (sometimes the artifacts change), but using a different antialiasing solves this.

If I activate subpixel-AA the rendering time jumps to 90-120ms, but only after the same level of zoom where the bad rendering shows up.
I'm using linux with the integrated GPU of the Core i7 3770 (Ivy Bridge).
The browser is Firefox 58.0b6

I should try this on Windows, unfortunately I have no rust dev env there.

Good news, it works now. Commit 7e0d003 fixed it, so I think that the driver bug is not triggered anymore after that refactoring.
