Downloading images from firebase storage swift 2.2

I have a project in which i have a image view (in Xcode 7.3). I need to show an image from my firebase storage and to my UIImageView, right now i am using this code: (but it's really slow - each time i enter the view it takes 3-4 seconds to show my image)

func showImage(){

    FIRStorage.storage().referenceForURL("https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/restaurantproject-27368.appspot.com/o/bestdeal.jpg?alt=media&token=dcbd9da1-d368-48ef-8ed2-a861103e4ab8").dataWithMaxSize(10 * 1024 * 1024, completion: { (data, error) in
        dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
            self.myImageView.image = UIImage(data: data!)
        }        
    })
}

Is there maybe a better way? (plus i need to cache it somehow in my device but i need it to check my image every time i enter the app because i need to change an image in my firebase storage sometimes and i want the app to keep showing the updated image,

Thank you!!

Kingfisher library can be used to cache the image. It checks for change in the image too. After installing kingfisher lib.you can do the following:

imageView.kf_setImageWithUrl(imageUrl)
