Yes. It only happens the first time you visit the videos after  
selecting a theme. There are assorted image transformations done, then  
cached and loaded into memory, as part of your theme cache. Quite  
painful at first for me w/my ION frontend, but now (even after  
reboots) as long as I don't change themes, its all rather snappy.
