As per the spec :
The command letter can be eliminated on subsequent commands if the same command is used multiple times in a row (e.g., you can drop the second "L" in "M 100 200 L 200 100 L -100 -200" and use "M 100 200 L 200 100 -100 -200" instead).

Optimised AND Sub-Sampled SVG - 2.39 KB (2,452 bytes)
Only plot alternate points in the SVG, i.e. 1st, 3rd, 5th, etc
Sparklines are only meant to be an overview, not a full-resolution graph
Might want to ensure that significant points are always plotted, i.e. the 1st, last, highest and lowest?Could also be extended to only plot 1-in-3 or 1-in-4 (i.e. lower the resolution until the graph looks bad!!)
