After initial load it should be fine. That is how most systems I worked on with it and works fine. The browser won't have to download it multiple times (depending on user settings). 1MB of javascript is huuuuuge, I don't want to say you are doing it wrong, but something is going on. jQuery library itself is just 85kb compressed. As a developer, the way I do it is make sure that my architecture design is correct (which language/systems/etc.. to use). Once that is done for my purpose, the language usually doesn't matter.
