What Hacker News says
2 sourcesAndroidQuery seems to lock the UI thread a bit at times. If you're just looking for a nice library to make net requests/load images I'd try Ion: https://github.com/koush/ion
Some other good libraries to check out are Volley, OkHttp, and Picasso. The latter 2 are maintained by Square (same folks who maintain ActionBar Sherlock) and they give great support in their G+ community: https://plus.google.com/communities/109244258569782858265
