JS in widget bit too heavy?
I tried widget in my blog today and weight graph shows that it adds around 300+Kb of java script. I try to keep blog light and that's almost three times rest of my index page including images and rest of scripts.
I understand that widget packs some fancy features, but does it really has to be that heavy?
PS as far as I understood alternative to widget is using RSS feed+link but that sends visitors away from page to make a suggestion.

Inappropriate?Hi Rarst,
Yeah, we're definitely concerned about the payload of the widget, and are planning to address that in a release sometime this year when we roll out v2 of the Widget.
By the way, what tool are you using to get this weight graph? I'd like to use to make sure our changes are going to directly address your concerns.

Inappropriate?I am using YSlow from Yahoo http://developer.yahoo.com/yslow/
Attaching graph I got for skribit widget (without my blog page, only widget itself in empty file).
I’m waiting for v2 I guess
