Using what rendering engine? At these densities, increasing the autohinter strength (going from slight to medium/full) might yield comparable results with AA without having to enable subpixel rendering. I've always used subpixel rendering along with full hinting strength to get sharper results so far, but I tolerated the fringing more than anything else. I'm quite glad to sacrifice the font shape instead.

Mainly with Windows’ own renderers (ClearType, GDI+, &c.), but in order to be unambiguously sure I did deliberately calculate and craft a quite simple example on one occasion, pixelwise. You’re quite right about the value of stronger hinting at such sizes.
