"The problem... I should never say 'problem'... the opportunity we face is that one year's bloated web page becomes next year's normal, and then after that it becomes an example of parsimonious and elegant web design." - Maciej Ceglowski
There's nothing at all wrong with thinking your file is getting a little out of hand even when there are examples of wanton recklessness all around you. That's as true even when there's nothing more you can do to make it smaller. I wish there were more people who had a sort of knee-jerk Hayes Smartmodem kind of reaction to everything they do that doesn't involve things like video and such. There's nothing quite like a page that's loaded and ready to rock about the same time the "I've clicked something" haptic feedback makes it to my brain.
