They don't affect the network capacity significantly, but if they are fetched via a different TCP connection on a congested network, they may at times arrive later than other content. So for incrementally rendering browsers, this may occasionally improve flashing of the page updates. And "graceful degradation" is nice for text browsers. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
