Like, I agree that if your web page loads a full MB of Javascript, eliminating JQuery should be the least of your concerns; it's a drop in the bucket, so optimize elsewhere. But web pages really shouldn't be loading 1 MB of Javascript in the first place.
It's so nice when I come across a website that's actually slim, I can really feel the difference...
But maybe they should?
