I always prefer compiling and gzipping the whole site's assets to just one .js and one .css file and serve them through CloudFront. It's usually around 100-200 KB and CloudFront's latency is very low at most places.
This saves a lot of requests and waiting time between page loads (i.e. the first page is always slower, but subsequent page loads take almost no time because there're very few (or even just 1) requests needed to make.)
