Some numbers:
SVG to PDF: Two diagrams, 25k.
SVG to EPS: Same two diagrams, 54k.
Difference: 29k.
Document rendered using the PDFs: 535k.
Document rendered using the EPSs: 463k.
Difference: 72k in the opposite direction.
Documents otherwise identical. These are some small diagrams, too.
With larger diagrams I started getting PDFs so huge that Okular
wouldn't display them.
