Oh, pippin already gave all the information about custom artwork size pre-caching - thanks!

One more thing about requesting 1024x1024: LMS versions up to 7.8 would actually UP-scale smaller images under certain circumstances. That's a bug in LMS, obviously. But I wouldn't request this size artwork for scrolling modes to let it scale down on the phone.

- Fourthly, if you use one of the formats other Apps also use, the
   load (per App) will be even lower. I don't fully remember what the
   server provides by default (I think 50x50 is the biggest format) but

Here's the list of default specifications:
'64x64_m',      # Fab4 10'-UI Album list
'41x41_m',      # Jive/Baby Album list
'40x40_m',      # Fab4 Album list

'50x50_o',      # Web UI small thumbnails, Controller App (low-res display)

"${thumbSize}x${thumbSize}_o", # Web UI large thumbnails - defined in Settings/User Interface

That latter probably is of little use as you can't know what the user has chosen. But anyway: it defaults to 100x100_o - which might be what most users are still using.

   iPeng for example uses 150x150_f and 300x300_f icon sizes. I don't
   know what other Apps use, somehow I seem to be the only one making the
   sizes public.

Heh... we still have this one:

'75x75_p',  # iPeng, Controller App (high-res displays)

Are you saying you don't use this any more? Would be time to pull it then :-).
