1.ass and 2.ass are supposed to look exactly the same.
I see exactly two possibilities:
1) (likely) I misunderstood how line-drawing clipping is supposed to work. The way 2.ass and mpv render is just wrong, and the reason for the performance difference.
2) libass implements the line drawing clipping wrongly. That should mean that mpv uses a different fork of libass than the one you tried with MPlayer.
