I just added
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/pull/770, which
generates minified css files. This is because in the near future css
files will become heftier (more documentation comments, more detailed
styles etc).
The disadvantage is that now one needs to be online to generate
documentation. Thoughts?
Almost all browsers support gzip transfer of files. You'd get much
better mileage with just gzipping the file.

That's part of the protocol, right? We should be doing that anyway.
Anyhow, the css is really hot and comments just add to it, compressed or
not. -- Andrei
I think this is way over-optimization.
If the system already sends gzipped, I don't think any kind of
minification is going to improve enough to the point of justifying all this.
(Dons Walter hat): have you profiled to see how much it saves?
