Which image caching library for iOS?

Tags:

uiimage

I am building a photo album app and find a few image caching libraries, namely:

  • JMImageCache
  • HJCache
  • SDWebImage

What one you'd recommend (or other libs not on the list)? I am looking for:

  • Efficiency
  • Minimum effort in terms of garbage collection
  • Support for Blocks preferred

Thanks

Kingfisher is a powerful, pure-Swift library for downloading and caching images from the web. It provides you a chance to use a pure-Swift way to work with remote images in your next app.

Personally, I think SDWebImage is the best because it is an absolute no-effort solution, and provides the simplest mechanism for cache handling as it is simply an extension of the UIImageView class.
