An extra HTTP request obviously doesn't come free, so...yes, a 308-byte script really does slow down your page loads.<br><br>I'm not sure what you're basing your "caches everywhere" statement on, but I know that l10n.js is packaged with WP and served from each site's respective directory (as opposed to being served from a public resource like Google-hosted jQuery). Therefore, whether or not it is cached depends on each server configuration--most of which follow the default behavior, which is to NOT cache the file. <br>
