Glide.with(mContext)
    .load(image.getMedium())
            .asBitmap()
            .diskCacheStrategy(DiskCacheStrategy.ALL)
            .into(new SimpleTarget() {
                @Override
                public void onResourceReady(Bitmap bitmap, GlideAnimation anim) {
                    // Do something with bitmap here.
                    holder.thumbnail.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
                    Log.e("GalleryAdapter","Glide getMedium ");

                    Glide.with(mContext)
                            .load(image.getLarge())
                            .asBitmap()
                            .diskCacheStrategy(DiskCacheStrategy.ALL)
                            .into(new SimpleTarget() {
                                @Override
                                public void onResourceReady(Bitmap bitmap, GlideAnimation anim) {
                                    // Do something with bitmap here.
                                    holder.thumbnail.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
                                    Log.e("GalleryAdapter","Glide getLarge ");
                                }
                            });
                }
            });

2) Fresco by Facebook is a new image library for Android. Here’s the official blog post introducing the library. It supports the streaming of progressive JPEG images over the network which can be really helpful to display large images over slow connections. One can see the image gradually improve in quality.
