Yes, I meant "spend another 5-10 minutes, after I give you this pointer"

Well, I didn't say the whole process would take 5-10 minutes (let's
extned it to 30 minutes, just to be on the safe side). I just suggested
you should spend so much trying to fix it. I.e., apply the fix in your
local egg, run the Windmill tests locally (and/or ec2). If the tests
pass, it might be worth spending time going through the whole process
you described. If they don't work, it might be better to go with a
different solution. Still, as you say, the .js file shouldn't be 1.5Mb
to begin with.
