If you have a 150k file you load before displaying a page, you've still occupied the CPU with the task of loading a 150k file. What happens to it afterward (compiling, compressing, caching, whatever) is another issue. You've still loaded 150k of code. The question is whether you actually need to load 150k of code from the start. If not, why waste the resources? Paul -- Paul M.
