Why? :)
Even at 56k6 a 4k cookie takes less than a second to send. (assuming full
speed) And that's with the rapidly increasing number of people (even here in
europe) using cablemodem or xDSL.
I'm not saying that bandwidth is there to abuse, I'm just saying that if you
*NEED* to send over 4kb of data, well, most poeple wont even notice it.
