I agree that there was something slightly off about the line spacing but it wasn't bothering me too much... however I just went and took a look at the code which controls the line spacing in posts and found a comment next to it which said:

line-height: 1.7em; /* TEST FOR READABILITY, remove this line to revert to 1.5em */

So I just changed that back to 1.5em and I think it looks better now. If you're not seeing it yet, it might take a few minutes for the change to sync across all the servers.
