Yes. The offscreen bitmap is moved while scroll is in progress. Only after finger is lifted is the redraw of the offscreen bitmap started, if the screen has moved enough. > how frequent are the IO calls? > There might be a retrieval of 25 or so small files after the scroll, or the same number of database binary reads. Enough to cover the screen. That may not be as precise as you want. Making too much I/O is never a good thing > How much is too much? (including accessing the flash drive... > What drive isn't flash? I'm assuming that app internal storage (I don't use), external storage, and removable external storage are all flash. these are system blocking) > This could be a clue. What do you mean by system blocking? Does this mean that all threads in all JVM's come to a halt while reading a block from storage? Or just that if multiple threads are trying to read from the storage, only one gets through at once? Certainly there could be some correlation between "system blocking" and complete freeze of the system, particularly if the Droid Razr HD does something special with File I/O. Based on some logs I have gotten, normal java.io.File operations appear to be routed through the media provider on the Droid Razr HD, which I do not call explicitly.
