Years ago I built a solution for a very busy website which contained 
data from a database, but with that website it was fine to keep the same 
page content for a day. The obvious solution was to generate the entire 
website during the night. It was served by a very lightweight webserver.

Maybe a similar solution is possible for the icons? If you change the 
icon size in a setting all (well, there are not that many icons) icons 
can be generated by a simple script. Resizeable icons, but cached as 
static files (not the normal 
see-what-data-you-need-and-calculate-a-cache-key cached images, but real 
static files).
