I have used grunt before and love it. I noticed also some of the sprites aren't optimised either. Fairly certain grunt can take care of this too.
I don’t think it would be that massive to introduce it. It would only need to be included as a last step on release, or for dev's like me to get worked up about such things. I shall read the link you send over and try to get some time to get a grunt build working in my environment.

I have attached Brian on this email he should be able to inform us what the outcome of that discussion was and what the future plans for the UI are. Personally I'd love to see a reduction in the size of it. The initial load of the web-ui is very long due to the 4.8mb load, I'm always wondering when I load it up for the first time "is this going to work, isn't it". There was mention of a gzip patch the other day to reduce this as well. https://reviews.apache.org/r/12228/ Regards, Ian On 28 January 2014 15:21, Alex Hitchins <alex.hitch...@shapeblue.com> wrote: > Do we ship using the 'full-fat' JQuery library?
