Why Modern Software Is Slow
harfbuzz creator made https://github.com/behdad/glyphy/ which i integrated into GTK a while back (but we don't ship currently, because we still do the bitmap stuff).
the bitmap stuff still has major drawbacks though, like maintaining grid alignments and pixel boundaries where as this stuff (mostly) goes away using glyphy.
still work to be done around hinting though (hence not merged).

You can approximate the Bézier curves with circular arcs and store those in the "SDF" instead. https://github.com/behdad/glyphy

The end of the nice GTK button

This is because GTK4 enables pixel/scaling-independent fractional vertical positioning, even with hinting enabled. There's a long (somewhat ongoing) discussion at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/3787, though I haven't followed the last few months of discussion.
Even though GTK4 aims to achieve scale-independent layout, the 4 horizontal/vertical positions still produce a bit of judder, and fonts do not scale smoothly (even with bilinear interpolation) with hinting enabled, and (unless fixed) there are rendering issues due to failing to clear the texture atlas properly: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/4322
Interestingly there's a proposal to switch GTK4 fonts to SDF-style rendering. This is somewhat like what Qt Quick 2 implemented already (and KDE turns off and reverts to FreeType rendering, to make QML apps mimic Qt Widgets font rendering more): https://blogs.gnome.org/chergert/2022/03/20/rendering-text-w... However, I looked at https://github.com/behdad/glyphy and it seems to implement vector-based SDFs, instead of earlier texture-based SDF/MSDFs used by Valve games and Qt Quick.
