- metafunctor 10y agoNah. These PDFs are look to be about 150K-300K. A typical bloated 2016 web page has an equal amount of JavaScript, let alone images, so not really worse off using PDFs. Assuming (generously) a 100k visitors at half a megabyte per visitor, a top HN placement will only cost a few dollars in bandwidth.
