Don't put your splash in the viewstack. - put a ProgressBar in the ViewStack's 1st view instead, set it to indeterminate - load your Splash page up in the popupmanager - use a doLater to change the ViewStack to the next child - use another doLater to remove the popup; since it'll take a frame for everything to initialize, the next frame your component will be done initializing, and the popup will be removed.

My Splash page is part of a viewStack as is the application page. The data is loaded with the splash page being displayed. The performance problem is with the rendering of the application page. This page is initialized when I select it in the viewstack. So the question is how do I get the page to construct while it is not displayed, and then switch to it when it has rendered.
