No, it shouldn't. If it does, that's a bug. I'd like to see it filed if 
you can make an HTML page available on the web which demonstrates it.

With a single file build, only the img/, theme/ and OpenLayers.js files
matter -- everything else (art/, build/, doc/, examples/, tests/,
tools/) can be deleted.

You might want to investigate HTTP Compression, especially if the images
you are serving are not jpgs:

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/web/library/wa-httpcomp/

via mod_gzip through apache.
