Right now each Fontsampler instance loads alls fonts via potentially non-cachable XHR requests. If the same file is included in several Fontsamplers on one page this will result in redundant downloads.
For example a page with 8 Fontsamplers each showing one of eight styles of a font family in a type tester, with a dropdown to select the other style. This would mean EACH style is loaded EIGHT times. Although not a very likely case, for those pages using Fontsampler like this the performance impact is massive.
