Load Drawable can block main thread for over 1 second

[benjaminRomano]

Background
We recently added some instrumentation to our app that detects our main thread blocked for >700ms (Android's Frozen Frame definition). We observed that one of our top issues causing main thread blockages / frozen frames is Glide's image loading.

Issue
We are observing that Glide can periodically cause the main thread to get stuck for ~1.5s seconds and in the worst case results in ANRs.

It appears to be an issue primarily on Android versions 9, 10 and 11. From internal data, I don't see anything that indicates that this is device model / OEM-specific.

It's probably unlikely there is enough info to root cause, but this report may help future developers who run into similar problems.
