Description

I've traced a problem with mythmusic and mythvideo menus taking between 6-14 seconds to appear (on my laptop) to the construction of the MythThemedMenu? object.

I'm busy with mythmusic at the moment, so I'm inviting someone else to take a look at this. If it's still not fixed by the time I'm done with mythmusic I'll take a stab at fixing it myself.

The bulk of this delay is due to the loading of images for watermarks and button icons. On heavier themes this takes much longer.

When we enter the menu for a plugin we create a new MythThemedMenu? and these images are loaded into memory again for a second time, adding to the overall memory footprint and slowing down the transition to the new screen.

I'm passing this to Greg as his planned global image cache will solve this issue completely.
