I'm thinking of replacing a series of galleries I'm using in a production site with UG. I feel the client will be much better able to manage it's nicely designed and configured UI. In my tests, it's slower on page load than I anticipated - it doesn't seem to cache the images (using compact format), but rather renders on the fly. Suggestions?
UPDATE: Using the 'Grid' theme with the panel set to the bottom looks just like Compact....but loads significantly faster. Maybe there's something in the Compact theme code that needs a tweak?

The load - especially for the second image - is still slow. 'Preload all images' made no difference.
any item on this page loads a UG gallery

I added a special page with both items on it.

(could you cloak the link above, please?- I don't want to pollute seo results or show up in google searches. because that happens....a lot.)
I'm happy with how grid is working, so i'm going to close the ticket.
