Hardy, har, har.
2 k may be no big deal..
BUT 33.6k is still low end.
2 k here, 2k there, and another 2k over there, it does add up.
code size isn't all either..
there is the time taken to execute the code.
I'm not saying that would be the case here, I am
simply against adding every-damned-idea that someone has.
If we did that the API would be ten times the size (altho it would have a
lot of added functionality)
would take 10 minutes to load, and would take one hundred times as long to
debug.
" No one cares about 2 k if they
are important and needed"
Are they important? are they needed?
Everyone thinks that their ideas are important, and needed.
No one cares? I sure as fuck care.
My site is so simple, that asside from the dynamic scrollbar, I could have
done it without dynapi,
and it would not take it 30 seconds to load.
7 seconds is the goal here guys.. 80% of your NEW viewers will leave,
because to them,
it appears nothing is happening, and 7 seconds is the average attention span
of a web surfer in North AM.
