Hi, Mark Murphy has given a great answer about different options to execute a periodic task in Android: http://groups.google.com/group/android-beginners/browse_thread/thread/2ce0d2034ce13cd/980c10d21bed92a7?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=periodic+task#980c10d21bed92a7.
But which of the options will have less overhead on CPU/Battery use for short frequent periodic tasks? 1. postDelayed(), 2. TimerTask 3. fork & sleep 4. Async Task 5.
