Display latency

I installed imagebrowser and I'm grateful for it's functionality. However, it seems that there is a bit of latency in the display of the images on a page. That is, a page loads and then there is a small wait (maybe half a second) before the imagebrowser images appear. Also, the src attribute for the images (I believe) are a view. I'm not sure how it all works, but I'm guessing that's what is responsible for the latency in rendering. It would be helpful if that information were given to the user before the user even downloads this module. Is there a way I can set it so the source of the images will be the real location of the image?

Thanks for all your work on this project!
