I’m currently developing a professional website and I have reached around 750 lines of CSS for around 4 pages, the bulk going into the homepage. I have curly braces in separate lines. I could probably reduce it a bit by going through it again.
But I was just wondering, what would you consider as being too much css?

How large is your CSS File? Sure, you have to worry about hard the browser has to work in terms on load when interpreting the CSS.. is it efficient, are you over working it?
Keep your size as low as possible is a given, but there are quite a few factors to think about. You can always minify, gzip compression when your done to save some time. Take a look at a testing tool http://tools.pingdom.com/
There’s plenty of articles on this so I won’t bother reeling off my personal opinion, so check these out
