It takes a long time to get results, even with Asynctask’s in parallel

Question

I send a request to the server but it takes to receive the result, I realized that the Asynctask that sends the location to the server every 1 second is getting in the way.

I realized this after I changed it to 3 seconds, where I sent a new request that took 1 to 3 seconds.

The code where Asynctask is used is below:

   final Handler handler = new Handler();
    handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {

        @Override
        public void run() {


                    //Atualizar GeoLocalização
                    localizacao.setUsuario(motoqueiro.getId());
                    localizacao.setLatitude(location.getLatitude());
                    localizacao.setLongitude(location.getLongitude());

                    new GeoUpdateAsynctask().execute(localizacao);

            handler.postDelayed(this, APP_REFRESH_TIME * 1000);
        }
    }, APP_REFRESH_TIME * 1000);
}

I would like to suggest some other method that you can use in this case, since I use several Asynctask in parallel.

Answer 1

You say you’re running several Asynctask parallel but not true.

As Asynctask, by default, are run in series on the same thread, even if they are different.

In order for the execution to be done in parallel you have to call the method executeOnExecutor(), passing him a Executioner.

new GeoUpdateAsynctask().executeOnExecutor(AsyncTask.THREAD_POOL_EXECUTOR, localização);
