Do you really care about how big jquery is when most of people have cached version in their browser already? Maybe people should make petition to ship jquery with browsers and not try to implement next library that will be gone in one year.
- dawkins 11y agoEven if you have it cached I think that the parse tree is not, so the whole thing must be processed again and again.
- mbrock 11y agoThat only applies if you serve from a public CDN, which there are reasons to not want to do. Including jQuery in browsers is kind of a ridiculous idea...
- Can_Not 11y agoThat wouldn't work, because jQuery would have multiple versions in the wild, custom builds, forks, etc.. Not only would almost no one have a cache hit because of that, but every time a CDN is down or overloaded, your website is now artificially slow... or broken, which happens far more often than a cache hit.
