It was easy enough to add the extra couple of lines to see if the cache already exists. TA launches blazingly fast (after the very first time you use it). But I do have two concerns: (1) now that TA caches its images, which are language-specific, how do I catch a change in language and then generate a new cache? I suppose I could make all the filenames include a language-specific suffix of some sort, but that seems kludgy. (2) When I update the activity, how will I know to update the cached images?
