We do, just not during the development process, when it's easily fixed  
later.

Thanks for the size summary, I'm looking into this tonight.

The plan is to only call it on the pages that involve the calendar.

Hehe.

Enable mod_gzip on your server. :)

There's quite a lot of size optimizations that you can do, but they aren't  
a priority for 2.0. In 2.1 and later releases, we will start fixing this.

The thing that annoys me the most right now is something that is hard to  
fix - TAL inserts a lot of whitespace every time it does a tal:condition.  
This is why there is so much whitespace in the calendar.
