Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 14.10 r251

1. Restart the phone.
2. Scroll through the Apps screen of the Dash.

What you see: The app icons blink into view over several seconds, as if
you are loading a Web page over a slow connection.

What you should see: The icons are all present instantly.

This is a poor first impression: The first useful part of the phone you
ever see is very slow to display. You might easily think that it will
always be this slow.

Unity knows exactly what apps are present in the Dash, so their icons
should all be pre-cached.

** Affects: unity8 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

- App icons appear slowly in Dash on first use
+ App icons appear slowly in Dash after startup
