Question

This is getting called in onCreate(), how can I speed up orientation switching?

private void setupChartView(int position){
            Quote myQuote = quotesAdapter.getItem(position);
            this.symbol = myQuote.getSymbol();

            String url = "http://chart.finance.yahoo.com/z?s=" + symbol + "&t=1d&q=l&l=on&z=l&p=s&a=v&p=s&lang=en-US&region=US";

            if(chartImageView != null)
                imageDownloader.download(url, chartImageView);

            if(chartImageViewLandscape != null)
                imageDownloader.download(url, chartImageViewLandscape);
        }

Don’t download the same resources every time the orientation changes. Cache it!!!
