The design team recently deployed the Popups[1] extension to English
Wikipedia as a Beta Feature. We are using the PageImages[2] extension
to get a thumbnail with a `pithumbsize` of 300. This was initially
290, but someone on IRC - I forget who - mentioned that it would be
faster if it were 300.

We are facing two problems with this approach -
 1. Some images are taking too long to load [3]
 2. Sometimes the first relevant image is not picked up [4]

Any ideas on how these bugs could be resolved would be helpful. The
code for the current implementation can be found on git [5].
