Very hard to say since it probably is a function of any particulars on the
system, including how Emacs was compiled.

I would recommend using a newer Emacs if possible.  Versions 23 and newer
have the ability to use antialiased fonts, which many find more pleasing.
(Some don't.).

This also is an Emacs question, so you should either ask on an Emacs
mailing list (although I see you already did ask on emacs-help), or
on ESS-help, but not R-help.
