Long loading time with large MP3 files

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Place several mp3 files (each around 10MB) at the directory
2. Load the page with tags {music} in content
3. Loading time is more than 10 seconds before showing up.

PS: On the same platform, with 12 files (each around 5MB), loading time is 1 or 
2 second only.

I doubt this problem only exist on handling large sized files.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Loading time is long before page loaded

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.2.7

Please provide any additional information below.

This may unfortunately be inherent to the design of this plugin. I've 
subsequently paginated where I use it myself. And I've learned to live with my 
site not being very fast. For my purposes that is good enough, you may make 
your own evaluation. It is listed in the limitations:

You may want to experiment with caching. I thought about that before, but never 
tried it.

In the html5 code of the player, change preload to none. This will force mp3browser not to preload tracks and load them on demand. A quick Google search will get you the exact code to turn off preloading audio in html5.
