Image Caching - background image in theme element vs. layout element?

Is there any advantage (from a caching standpoint) to making a background image part of a custom theme element compared to repeatedly assigning the same image to multiple layout elements?

 

What I am really trying to understand is if I use the same image on multiple layouts if FileMaker will treat them as different images and cache them separately.

If you assign an image to a background it will be loaded once.

If you assign the same image to multiple elements, each image has to be downloaded.

 

Yes, they are different images and will be cached separately!
