Instead of creating apage just to load the picture, why not include the
picture as a single pixel image in a page that is likely to be hit prior to
the target page:

  <img src="/images/bigpicture.jpg" height="1" width="1">

It won't be visible, and since you provided the dimensions, it won't slow
down the rendering of the page. Then when the target page is loaded, the
image will be cached and should render quickly.
