Hello air guys,
I'm currently working on an application to share images and the images are displayed as thumbnails in a Tile list.
I have a problem when loading the images from the local file system with the Loader object : it is slow with large files, between 0.8 sec and 1 sec., large files meaning more than 3MB.
I tried using a cache system (resizing images and then saving them to the user's computer) to avoid loading the large file next time the loading of the picture is requested but the problem is still the same since the initial loading is too long.
I experienced an air application where my 3MB images are loading something like 4 or 5 times faster so there is a way ..
My question is, is there another way to load images from local file system and display them than using a Loader object or do you have an idea on how I could speed up the loading of these images ?
Thank you very much.
