FWIW: I wasn't able to reproduce the issue. Started OS, browsed albums and saw the requests on LMS. I then force-quit the app, restarted. And no requests where sent to the server when I started browsing the albums list.

With my MusicArtistInfo plugin enabled I saw the same behaviour in the artists menu: first time it would request the artist artwork. Second time it doesnt.

Without the plugin it wouldn't even request the album covers to create the artist images if I was previously browsing albums (thus caching album covers).

db122 - you could speed up image delivery by telling the server to pre-cache artwork in the size you want. See the CLI documentation (http://yourserver:9000/html/docs/cli-api.html#artworkspec). Unfortunately you're using different definitions for album artwork and other artwork:

album: music/bd43888e/cover_232xX_F.jpg
others: imageproxy/mai/artist/192/image_232x232.png

If you used 232x232.png for all of them then LMS 7.8+ and MusicArtistInfo would pre-cache all the artwork you'll need, speeding up first time delivery considerably.
