Twitter's chirp webfont is almost 100k. On optimized sites, that can easily be larger then all of the HTML/CSS combined.

Twitter's chirp webfont is almost 100k. On optimized sites, that can easily be larger then all of the HTML/CSS combined.
- TheRealPomax 5y agoBut tens to even hundreds of times smaller than any single tweet that has an image in it, so not really a useful metric.
- turtlebits 5y agoThat attitude is why web pages have gotten so bloated. https://twitter.com/Twitter https://twitter.com/Twitter is 1.6mb. (200k+ of fonts, 500k+ of JS)
- turtlebits 5y agoActually webbloatscore.com says 2,062 kB and 88 requests.
- TheRealPomax 5y agoAnd heaven forbid browser caches frequently used sites, which would make that complaint an equally meaningless metric.
