Default How do we optimize 3.4.0 thumbnail display?
Another x-cart member pointed this out to me.

3.4.0 lets you use the file system to store the images BUT the display still uses the image.php to query the data base for each and every thumbnail images.....

This can result in 20-100 extra queries, has anyone modified the products.tpl template NOT to use image.php file but to simply use image/product.jpg for example?

This data should be available in the listing query so I 'm not sure why the x-cart team chose to do it the image.php way, why have 30 extra seperate queries instead of 1?
