Ok, some more stats regarding this subject.

Talking about size:
-rw-r--r-- 1 vampas vampas 80469 2007-12-25 13:45 jquery-latest.js -->
Uncompressed jQuery library
-rw-r--r-- 1 vampas vampas 46480 2007-12-31 16:22 jquery-
latest.JSMin.js --> Minified by JSMin
-rw-r--r-- 1 vampas vampas 46437 2008-01-02 16:52 jquery-latest.min.js
--> Minified and Gziped downloaded on jQuery.com
-rw-r--r-- 1 vampas vampas 45418 2008-01-02 16:41 jquery-
latest.shrinksafe.with-new-lines.js --> self explanatory
-rw-r--r-- 1 vampas vampas 43550 2008-01-02 16:44 jquery-
latest.shrinksafe.without-new-lines.js --> self explanatory

>From the above you see some size differences, which might not matter
that much, all work, but, the files compressed from shrinksafe are
actually not that safe, both gave me JS error and made the jQuery
library un-usable.

I saw a blog post which states that the Yahoo compressor is even
better but I haven't tried that one.
