I've not tried YUI or Google's JS framework, but I can tell you that
jQuery pretty much rocks harder than Pantera and you're doing yourself,

AJAX call or two. [/snip]
jQuery 1.8 will allow you to create custom builds, including only the
services that you want. That is coming out really soon. Besides,
minified and gZipped....well see above.
