[mochikit] Re: Practical javascript size limit

[Ryan Nichols]

I wouldn't use it for any publicly facing websites that receives general traffic. For applications it's just fine, especially if it's a tool that has repeated use. Anything else, like an e-commerce site, is probably a no-no.

At this point, I'd like to use: Mochikit (100k) Mochikit Scriptaculous Port (50k -- maybe a bit smaller if compressed) IE7 (30k) Is that too much? Won't it cause serious problems for visitors with dialup? Then again, doesn't a 100k file cause serious problems for visitors with dialup? I understand that the file gets cached after the first use, but even so, is it acceptable? I'd love some general feedback.
