I just updated from 9.0.1.0 to 9.0.2.0 in Win10 and find that seemingly all pages, including internal ones, use a narrow font. I have not changed the font settings (it's still on Medium). Is this just a quirk here?

One other user has reported the problem so far that I've seen. It is odd that it doesn't happen in Chrome itself, which surely uses the same font as the above.

I don't see that here. Did you by any chance apply a zooming percentage smaller than 100%? Press ctrl+0 should reset it.

As a sanity check, I ran Chrome and all looks normal there. This gives you a better look at the problem, with Slimjet on top and Chrome on the bottom: http://screencast.com/t/mDBmB0x0BpYv

Definitely a Win10 14316 issue. Prior to 14316 fonts were like those on my Win7 machine,
and I do not remember it being a problem with Win10 14295 insider preview.
But i still haven't found out WHY!
All I know is I'm tired of squinting and use Firefox if I want to see normally,
Please don't close this thread yet. Others may want to respond.
With it enabled, as of the latest build of Win10 Insider, it's still a problem in Slimjet and Cent, but hasn't been a problem in Vivaldi for a while somehow. And for me at least, somehow never was a problem in Chrome.
