As big as jQuery? Gzipped it's 27k, a ridiculously small size.

  Ridiculously small? That could take 10 s to download on a 2G network.

    Yeah, sure, most sites today are totally browsable in 2G. Event the damn native APP for hackernews, using only JSON, is not usable in 2G.

      For me HN seems to be one of the few websites that is usable on 2G.

  Network bandwidth usage is also not the only metric of size we care about. After it's ungzipped, it needs to be parsed by the JS engine, and more code = slower execution.
