    Hi – i’ve read that you discourage inlining the whole css in the head. But all the same, do you have a threshold value in KB, which is still accecptable for this technique? Is for instance 15KB to heavy?

    gut feeling I’d say 12KB, but 15KB could make just as much sense really.

    do however take into account that inlining all CSS means the CSS is not cached seperately, so you’ll have the 12 or 15KB overhead for each request vs. only the first request when the CSS is linked the normal way.

    hope this clarifies,
    frank
