Isn't this similar to Pascal's Razor Engine? That's what I'm using now with
my current project. Just adapted the code a bit to work with 2.53 instead of
dynacore.
I have browser.js cookies.js and dynapi.js linked from the splash page, so
they start downloading straight away. Then the main page has the basic API -
event's and stuff, and each theme then has just the widgets it needs. It
works fine for me, once the files are downloaded they are ready for any page
from the same site. (user's cache settings permitting of course.)
you can get razor from http://www.dynamic-core.net and I can post mine if
anyone is interested....

If this is true it's nice. Means you can balance your design, downloading a
portion of it with a splash page and the rest with the main page.
Significantly reduces the impression of "waiting" with the user.

I found this snippet :
One of the greatest advantages to using .js files across mutliple pages is
that the files are cached after the initial use, and are ready immediately
on subsequent pages, speeding up load times after the initial page visited
at your site.

I think if you try testing this though, you'll get false calls to the
server, as the mod date is always checked to see if the .js files have been
changed.
