Cycle supports loading images via ajax, which I think could smooth out
the long load issues.
A very basic impementation would be
$("#cycleDiv").load(slides.html, function(){
$(this).cycle({
timeout: 5000
});
});
where "slides.html" is the path to an html file that looks something
like:
<img src="slide1.jpg" alt="" />
<img src="slide2.jpg" alt="" />
<img src="slide3.jpg" alt="" />
