  Have you used the appropriate profiling tools to verify that this is
indeed where the slowdown occurs? You have not addressed this crucial
question. I just did a quick test myself and this:

NSImage * img = [[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] iconForFile:pathToSomeFile];

  ... executes in a very small fraction of a second. If you're
assuming that's where the slow-down is, test your assumptions using
the proper tools. Evidence so far suggests this is not where your
problem is.
