Every time I click on the application or system menus, I notice that no icons show up for a second, then they page in. Is there some way to explicitly tell Ubuntu to cache this? My SuSE (GNOME) desktop doesn't have this problem, but I don't know whether that's because they're doing something custom, or because it's a setting I'm missing.

    You will be glad to know that this issue will be fixed in the next version of Ubuntu, Ubuntu 10.10.

You'll need to manually tell Ubuntu to update the icon cache. This command should accomplish that for you:

gtk-update-icon-cache -f /usr/share/icons/THEMENAME/

Replacing THEMENAME with your theme name, of course.
