Thank you for raising this question. JavaScript and CSS is cached. It's 
true, for sure. 16Kb or 100K, it's peanuts. But response time matter, I 
can't agree more.

If you get a raw result page, so WITHOUT css and js:

date; wget http://localhost/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=hugo; date

You find that it takes 3-4 seconds, even localhost. So Koha has to be 
blamed. It takes this amount of time to Koha to interpret Perl scripts, 
do a search with Zebra, to request MySQL, to aggregate the result, to 
construct the HTML page with templating system. It would be interesting 
to see how better are performances with mod_perl. My feeling is that 
using mod_perl and session variables for syspref (avoiding to request 
syspref multiple times) would increase significantly performance.
