Screensaver takes too much time to fade-out the previous pix, but...

In F-14.. when "screensaver slideshow" runs, the previous pix takes
quite a while to fully fade-out, and is completely gone only a few
seconds before the pix changes again.. but on an old tower, with only
250-megs of RAM, the fade is nearly instant..?  Which maybe means that
"less RAM allocated to screensaver's slideshow, eliminates the
irritating lengthy fade"..?
So is there a way, in a high RAM machine, to restrict RAM to
screensaver's slideshow while it's pix-changing, so to eliminate the
irritating lengthy fade time-periods..?

Please tell, what is being done to eliminate screensaver's slideshow
fade time-period..?

Is there a way to regulate the time-period a screensaver slideshow pix
remains on the screen..?  I would like a lot more user-conrol over
screensaver's slideshow...  Is there a way to do it with "libs" and
such..? Or isn't it written yet..?
