Faster Loading images in GridViews or ListViews in Android using Menory Caching, Complete implemenation with sample code.

This example shows you how to load large images in the gridview without any lag or without outofmemory error. This sample application uses the LruCache to hold the images.

When a value is added to a full cache, the value at the end of that queue is evicted and may become eligible for garbage collection.
