Another good option is to use the Google AJAX Libraries API that serves a compressed version of prototype that will be cached by a year and sent with compression headers , you can include it using the full url or the Googles’s API

  1.  
  2. <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/prototype/1.6.0.2/prototype.js"></script>
  3.  
  4. OR
  5.  
  6. <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google.com/jsapi"></script>
  7. <script type="text/javascript">
  8. google.load("prototype", "1.6.0.2");
  9. </script>
  10.  
  11.  

You can find compressed versions of scriptaculous, jQuery, MooTools, dojo as well. The bad thing is there are no https support so it wont work for secure sites.
