For the record, once we get rid of Persona there are a whole log of network requests we no longer need. Here's a snapshot of our prod page in Webpagetest.org before Persona is removed.

A good number of static assets here were cached with good caching headers but the added weight of Persona was a total of 18 requests and 422KB of stuff.

See, a lot of things were not cached.

Here's the updated webpagetest: https://www.webpagetest.org/result/161019_V0_182K/

Ahhhh! Look at the beautiful difference:
BEFORE: https://www.webpagetest.org/result/161017_YT_WCV/1/details/#waterfall_view_step1
AFTER: https://www.webpagetest.org/result/161019_V0_182K/1/details/#waterfall_view_step1
(Ignore the times, but note that there's now 17 LESS REQUESTS necessary)

And because of the way Persona worked, a lot of requests were made on every page load, so for a repeat-review:
BEFORE: https://www.webpagetest.org/result/161017_YT_WCV/1/details/cached/#waterfall_view_step1
AFTER: https://www.webpagetest.org/result/161019_V0_182K/1/details/cached/#waterfall_view_step1
8 LESS REQUESTS! On every page!
