Performance impact of using css / javascript source-maps in production?

javascript css httprequest source-maps production-environment

A quick test using Charles Web Proxy shows that source maps are only loaded if developer tools are opened. If you load a page without dev tools opened, there is no http request for source maps.

The behaviour was the same in Chrome 43 and Firefox 38.

So it appears they would be no impact on production environment.
