Bug description:
  That uses texture memory in the megabytes range and slows down startup time by several hundred milliseconds.
  It could be made tiny for the same visual result.

  While at it, making the loading asynchronous would be a win and it
  should be using the .sci syntax so that resolution independence can
  kick in.
