That's actually a very good question. If I were a better C programmer,
I probably would :-)

Isn't that part of what Gzip compression does automatically? Buffers
out tabs, newlines, etc?

I wasn't sure if that would have much of an impact, but I've already
been at that point ;-) I've also moved images into sprite images.
While the filesize is practically the same, it has cut down on the
number of connections per page load, which has had a noticeable
impact.
Don't think that the sarcasm was lost on me, but I've found that
saving microseconds per page really does have an impact. It's not
uncommon for this site to have over 1,000 processes per second, so I'm
constantly trying to make each process finish faster to prevent
processes from going into the queue.
Now that I've explained why it matters, do you think that including
several PHP files would have a discernible impact?
