Err, ok, I've optimised the image now with that tool (fwiw, back when it was created, I could only find pngcrush to use). But anyway, that wasn't really my point -- my point was that caching doesn't seem to play as big a role as one might be tempted to think.

Well, now you have the chance to try it out in practice: has the traffic surged because of the change in the icon? Has it slowed down after everyone cached the new version?
