UIImageView Animation too much memory consumption

Question

I have a problem with memory and images that I am animating. First thing first, I am using ARC. On my initial screen I have about 60 images to animate. I am using this code

Answer 1

The problem in your code is with the basic approach. You simply cannot hold all the decoded images in memory at the same time. I wrote a specific blog post on this subject which you can read here. The solution is to use a different approach, so that you only hold 1 frame of decoded image data in memory at once. That means frames of data need to be dynamically loaded as needed.
