I've never understood the JS community's obsession with smallest libraries. 1kB vs 10kB makes exactly no difference for download nowadays. Basic HTTPS handshake takes more time than downloading that amount of data.

Well, JS costs more than just the kb to download. And I disagree with your statement 10kb instead of 1kb, when you're on a low 3G or even on Edge, can make a huge difference !

Still, thread.js is interesting, being able to pass observable thru worker is great !
