I implemented a ImageCache. But I’m curious about what type to store in it will cost less.
Now I use BitmapFactory to get the images from the internet, so I get a Bitmap first.
Should I convert to a Drawable to store in my ImageCache or just store the Bitmap is fine?
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Just store the Bitmap. That’s what you’re caching and I’m not sure what you’d gain by shoving it into a BitmapDrawable first. It would definitely take more space as a Drawable since it contains the bitmap anyway. You don’t really lose anything either way as both are convertible back and forth.
