exported applet load times

Hi all,
When I write some code in Processing and export it, what I've found is that the more images you use, then the longer it takes for the applet to start. I'm using about 15 images and the load time is significant, even though the jar is only 250k
The example and code is here:

processing by default will turn off "caching" of images, which for images that are changing (the majority of p5 projects.. i.e. a webcam type thing or something generated on disk) it forces them to reload.
unfortunately, this makes the whole .jar reload each time (someone discovered elsewhere on the board).
the fix is to use loadImage("filename.jpg", false) when you want the cached version (your case).

fry,
I tried what you suggested and I still experienced the same problem: very long load time. I tried both true and false settings for the loadImage and neither seemed to effect results.

k, sounds like something bad.. will look into it further. the image i/o is getting reworked a bit for megabucket as a result of some of these things.
(moving this over to bugs)
