I'm having problems with ListViews in my application. I thought everything was fine until I noticed that if I scrolled up and down through the list quickly a number of times, sooner or later the app would crash with an OutOfMemoryError.
When I searched for the error I noticed a number of posts related to loading images. As my list items included a small arrow png, I assumed the problem lay here. However even after removing this and all other drawables I had (gradient background and list separator) the problem still remains. Here's the stack trace ERROR/dalvikvm-heap(2362): 66560-byte external allocation too large for this process.

Also, doesn't the reported 66K seem like a very small amount to be causing a crash?
