Hi everybody !

I'm a developper but not a KDE one's.

Tell me if it's a silly stuff, but why not caching every KDE icon
in one single pixmap in each X server ? My KDE-1.0-at-home is slow
only when it loads these nices icons store as *.XMP. Of course, one
can do the same thing to store the toolbar icons.

Thus, maybe a kpixmapcacherd is not necessary. Just a Pixmap ID
stored in a X atom is needed. And a good "different-size-icons
-in-one-single-pixmap" allocator !

This one is really going to become necessary soon....
