Is it possible to know when a PlasmaCore IconItem is ready?

the following code drops my performance to half comparing to the
Images solution,
do I miss something? :


    DropShadow {
        id:shadowImageNoActive

        width: 64
        height: 64

        scale: wrapper.scale * wrapper.appearScale

        anchors.centerIn: parent

        radius: 7.0
        samples: 10
        color: "#90080808"
        source: ShaderEffectSource {
            id:effectSource
            width: iconImage.width
            height: iconImage.height
            sourceItem: iconImage
            hideSource: true
            live: false
        }

        PlasmaCore.IconItem {
            id: iconImage

            width:64
            height:64

            anchors.centerIn: parent

            active: true
            enabled: true
            usesPlasmaTheme: false

            source: decoration

        }

    }
