    Game freezes for a second when switching themes and several "icons" indicators (with a configured border) are created.

    When a lot of "icons" indicators were defined in the profile and the addon sets the icons background&border the game freezes for a bit.

     

    It seems wow API SetBackdrop() function is awful slow: Implemented a workaround in r865 version to avoid calling this function if not completely necessary in icons indicators.

     

    TODO: SetBackdrop()  is used in other indicators too (but delays are less noticeable because only icons indicator creates multiple borders), review the code en implement some workarounds  to minimize the delays in other indicators too.
