What is Streaming of PNG files ?
you mean downloading them from an [HTTP] server ?

You have a good point, maybe it's a bit unclear what I mean with streaming.

Streaming for this job would be to change the engine to be able to stream load PNG images from the hard drive instead of having to load the entire image at one time which for some cases like background loading of resources can causes stuttering.
