Hi all, trying to wrap my head around this. The

lookupImagesWithAsync()

should be faster since two images are downloaded in parallel, correct?

imageRepository.downloadImage(imagePath)

is a

suspend

function that does its work in

withContext(<http://Dispatchers.IO|Dispatchers.IO>)

Yes, it should be faster.

Thanks, Dominic. so in

lookupImages()

imageRepository.downloadImage("img-url-2")

does not start the download process until

imageRepository.downloadImage("img-url-1")

returns

image1

?

Exactly

ok either my way of measuring is not correct or i am just running into caching issues which make the results not what i would expect

Your measurement looks fine.

cool thanks for confirming, @Dominaezzz
