That's not correct.  It just does

  (plist-put (cdr image) :index n)
  (force-window-update))

So per-image caching should be fine...  I think...  If each Lisp-level
image maps to something on the C-level side.  Hm...  I see that there's
already a cache there, but it caches the displayed representation, and I
need to cache the "raw" MagickWand representation.  (The image may be
scaled etc after computation, so I need the pre-scaled version of the
image.)

Hm...
