 Currently, the woff code is embed into the /wp-includes/css/dashicons.css
 aswell as /wp-includes/css/dashicons.min.css as base64 code.

 Due to performance purposes, the code should be changed to:

 {{{
 @font-face {
         font-family: dashicons;
                 src: url(/wp-includes/fonts/dashicons.woff),
                 url(/wp-includes/fonts/dashicons.ttf) format("truetype"),
                 url(/wp-includes/fonts/dashicons.svg#dashicons)
 format("svg"),
                 url(/wp-includes/fonts/dashicons.eot);
         font-weight: normal;
         font-style: normal;
 }
 }}}
