A comment on Show HN: Radium – style react components with JS. Parent comment
For server-side rendering there are two factors at play which have kept this from being an issue:
1. You're only getting the styles necessary to render the current page, which will often be smaller than an a global app CSS file.
2. Repeating styles (as in a long table) are repetitious and compress well with gzip.
Someone at Formidable has been doing some extensive research into this and should have a blog post out soon with more details.
