Ok, so if I understand you correctly, the cache works as-is when I use my (broken) approach of scaling fonts through their "size" property. The proper way would be using the same font "size" but rendering it at a higher resolution, but the current cache implementation doesn't support this.

In my patch, the multiplier always comes from the "bigger" scale factor, either h or v. Bitmap (down-)scaling to final size is done afterwards.
