Bug description:
Binary package hint: f-spot

Our default photo application, lacks caching when watching photos. It would be nice if the next image would appear instantly, without redrawing, just like in gqview (which should be used as a reference in speed).

It is important, as users use cameras that produce very large (e.g. 10MP) images.

Upstream bug contains a patch for this (which needs to be updated though).
