Google's new logo might not be as small as claimed (cloudinary.com)

Last week Google announced their new logo, and promised a drastic size reduction from their previous logo, of X46, from approximately 13.7KB to only 305 bytes. Seems that these promising numbers are misleading. A mix of the SVG and PNG image formats is involved. The actual logo images embedded in Google's web pages are much bigger and have plenty of room for optimization.

Almost every website can be optimized, but this is really wasteful...
