#AndStatus v.56.01 released. "Avatars and attachments syncing performance improved".

Since its creation years ago AndStatus used only one background process (thread) to post and to download information from the Internet. Images downloads were considered low priority tasks, so avatars and attachments appeared noticeably later than text of a timeline, especially when multiple timelines and accounts were synced one after one.
With this release a separate process is responsible for images downloading, so overall syncing performance improvement should be visible.
