General

With Icons Preloading = On, it would load all the VWG images into the client machine cache on the initial loading of the application client. This will cause the loading to become longer, but the usage of the application much faster and smoother.

Note: using this flag is application dependent; in case the application contains a very large number of icons and many of them are inaccessible for some users, there is no point in preloading all of them since some of them are not used. In any other case, switching the Icons Preloading to “On” will cause a slight latency on first access, however, will result in better performance from this point on since images are now cached on the client.
