That should be everything I need to test this.

I suspect a one line change (to turn off smooth scaling on the
background image) will fix everything. I now have the images and can
test. Alternately I could maybe cache a scaled png version. I'll see how
well this first fix works.

Actually when I first went through benchmarking LightDM having a JPEG
background (1920x1280) caused the processor to spend as much time
decoding the JPEG as it did  doing everything else. (JPEG can have up to
~6000 CPU calculations for each block of 8x8 pixels. My day-job is about
image compression, I could go on for hours) . It'l be slowing down your
load time too.

Thanks again for the extensive investigation.
