Just for anyone reading, 100kb is the max you want for initial load if targeting mode. This means that Ember is a bad choice for most web apps today. React isn't a great choice either because the lack of features and relative large size means you have to add more stuff and quickly get large builds.

100kb is an ideal right now. Many apps will have more than that in just CSS.
100kb is the max amount of JavaScript. There's a number for all resources but I don't know what it is offhand.

Using more than 100kb of CSS is a red flag and probably means you are using a framework like Bootstrap and not just importing the parts you need.
