It seems like gadget scripts are (usually?) not minified. They should be minified and if possible combined into a single request.
If the gadget is using ResourceLoader it will be automatically minified and combined into a single request.
I assumed that en-wp had everything configured optimally, but it seems like a lot of gadgets don't use ResourceLoader. Anyway - thanks for the pointer.
