Re: Slow rendering
There's no problem at all rendering your gallery at http://msjogren.com/start/favs/. It loaded very quickly for me. The only bottleneck in the gallery loading is the thumbnails, which is a factor of the number of thumbnails, the size of the thumbnails, and the quality (compression) of the thumbnails.

Re: Slow rendering
I had to change to standard ce layout, the problem appears when using freewall.
Theres no progressive load on the images, seems like hooking up the events delays the whole rendering.
the more images - the slower it is, you can se it somewhat here i hope:

Re: Slow rendering
Well that's what happens when you use Javascript for layout. There's nothing out-of-the-ordinary about that gallery either, though. It loads as designed.

Re: Slow rendering
Something you can do, use .htaccess to enable GZIP compression and browser caching. This is covered in the appendix section of our documentation, under ".htaccess".

Re: Slow rendering
A user with a bad connection get faced with a white page, having no clue that in the backround images are being loaded, since nothing shows until the js triggers. This makes the layout useless with galleries with a large set of images.
A preferred way to deal with this would to trigger all images on screen...and load the rest as you scroll. (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5117 … -into-view)
If this is to complex, a progressbar would improve user experience as the trigger awaits.
