After downloading a "Compressed" build of the mootools 1.1
library (with everything included), the file size was about 40
kb (42 to be exact). But after downloading the normal (not
compressed) build, the exact size was 172 kb. The non-compressed
build was about 7000 lines in javascript code.  I would normally
asume that parsing 7000 lines of code isn't very CPU friendly,
however, the compressed build seems to be parsed on the fly.  So
far I have not experienced any problems with the library (in
terms of browser overhead), but I was wondering when put onto a
highly active website (one that has a variety of ads, and
images, fonts and colors, and of coarse content) then would the
browser rendering the web page start to lag due to the massive
javascript footprint of the mootools framework?  Or is it just
that normal javascript is simply not that draining on browser
resources? And that mootools really isn't that big of a deal in
terms of browser process?  I run IE7 and FF2 on my P4 2.4Ghz,
