Hi Nate,

Actually, the slider is what I have used the whole time. It is set for 150%.
Where I got the 144 logical dpi information from is from the fonts panel where
it shows checkbox "force font dpi" and 144 is listed there and also in "xrdb
-query | grep -i xft". The number makes sense to me, since it is scaling. The
true DPI of the physical display is something like 102 PPI, and of course X
likes 96 as a base. 

It's not a big issue because the rest of the UI seems to be working, I just
feel the portal behaviour should be consistent with the rest of the UI. I tried
changing the font for "Small" to a different face to test, nothing changed.
