AsyncTask, RejectedExecutionException and Task Limit

I am fetching lots of thumbnails from a remote server and displaying them in a grid view, using AsyncTask. The problem is, my grid view displays 20 thumbnails at a time, so that creates 20 AsyncTasks and starts 20 executes, one per thumbnail.

I getRejectedExecutionexception in my code. I recall reading somewhere that there is a limit to number of tasks that AsyncTask can have in its queue at a time, i might be hitting that. Was this bar lifted?

Is there a way to increase this limit? Is it safe to just ignore this exception?(by having an emptycatch(RejectedException e){}block?)

I am running this code on Android 1.6 emulator and the API level in my code(minSDKVersion is 3). [EDIT: Added SDK and API level info]

I recall reading somewhere that there is a limit to number of tasks that AsyncTask can have in its queue at a time, i might be hitting that. Was this bar lifted?

AsyncTaskappears to presently support 10 threads and a work queue depth of 10. In theory, that would just support 20 items...if nothing else is usingAsyncTask.

Is there a way to increase this limit?

Grab the source code, modify it, put it in your own package, and use that one. I did this with myAsyncTaskEx, though that is based on the Android 1.5 source.

Is it safe to just ignore this exception?

Your work will not be queued for execution. Whether that is "safe" is up to you. I am not aware of any other impacts on theAsyncTaskinfrastructure.
