Compression of a bitmap is slow

dev4567 — Mon, 27 Jan 2025 17:58:24 GMT

`StrictMode` policy indicates that `LocationDisplay` loads a bitmap in the Main thread and it's slow:

`android.os.strictmode.CustomViolation: Compression of a bitmap is slow`

the policy is being setup in the Application by simply:

StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(
    Builder()
        .detectAll()
        .penaltyLog()
        .build()
)

Thank you @dev4567 for reaching out regarding this issue. I can confirm this would be a warning displayed when constructing the LocationDisplay with StrictMode enabled. We have logged this issue and will provide a fix in a future release.

Meanwhile, if you're looking for a way to resolve the warning currently, I would recommend creating the LocationDisplay while in a coroutine scope and not on the main thread.
