Comment on Using SVG in backgrounds with PNG fallback by Peter

The drawback of this method is obviously that if the browser supports the CSS 3 background-image property, the browser will fetch both images and lay them over each other (the SVG will be on the first layer and should cover the PNG, so that it becomes invisible). This also means that without optimisation (that is browser detects that the SVG covers the entire area and ignores all other layers) the browser will have to scale both images.
