Are you recycling the views that come back to you in getView() (or bindView())? I cover this technique in the later posts in this series: http://androidguys.com/?s=fancy+listviews Forgive the formatting problems, and bear in mind that the older posts are for the M5 SDK and may require minor modifications to work on the current Android SDK. You might also look at Romain Guy's Shelves application, particularly with an eye towards how he handles all of his book cover images, to see if there is anything more you would need to do to make sure your images get properly garbage collected. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android Training on the Ranch! -- Mar 16-20, 2009 http://www.bignerdranch.com/schedule.shtml --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
