I would highly recommend merging as much as you can into one file.
Each additional request could tack on a couple 100 milliseconds. The
best thing you can do though is to get the latest firebug console
(www.getfirebug.com) and use the 'Net' tab to compare both methods and
see which is better for your situation.
