Comment (by westonruter):

 @peterwilsoncc We should test this indeed.

 You're referring to transferring dictionaries, but Compression
 Dictionaries aren't implemented by `load-scripts.php`, right? Also, I
 don't see that there is even any compression at all (e.g. GZip). Maybe I'm
 not seeing something.

 The additional latency required to boot up PHP to  concatenate the scripts
 should be considered as well. Serving static files would be a much faster
 TTFB.

 We can get some additional benefits by preloading key scripts and styles
 used on in the editor when the user lands on the dashboard, for example.
