My biggest gripe with XPages is all the resources that are loaded automatically.
It's ok if you're building a web -application-, but I can't bring myselft to build webpages that loads 30+ JS files and 10+ CSS-files.
I hope IBM implements something like YUI's Combo Handler CDN service.

With proper server-side caching, gzipping and minifying, I'd think this could improve the load-time/performance (if lazy loading is involved) of pages by quite a bit. Especially for high latency clients.
