Improve Android Emulator Performance on Windows 7 x64

Slow Android emulator

I'm running on Eclipse Helios on Windows 7 x64. I have a Core 2 Duo 2.0 Ghz with 4.0 GB which I think should be enough, since I've never have any performance problems with developing tools.

When I run my first app on the Android Emulator (both 2.3.3 and 3.0) it took at least 5 minutes to load the OS and at first it didn't even run the HelloAndroid app. Even when I managed to run the application, the performance was unbareable.

The strange things is that is not a OS performance issue. This is the CPU and Memory status while executing:

CPUPerformanceWhileRunning

I've tryed various things to improve the performance, but no major improvement is shown. I think I'm missing something.

Things I have tryed:

On AVD Manager

  • Device RAM size to 512.
  • Resolution to 640 x 480.
  • Snapshot enabled.

    • On Project preferencesAndroid

  • Launch -cpu-delay 0 -no-boot-anim -cache ./cache -avd Android3

    • Things I can't tryed: - Deploying on a device (don't have any).

    By the way, I've had the same problem on a MAC Mini 2.66 Ghz 2 GB but these settings made the difference.

    Anyone can give any tips to improve this lame performance?.

    Unfortunately, you are not alone on this.

    There doesn't seem to be a good solution, but a few tips:

  • Start the AVD directly, not through the IDE
  • Leave the AVD running instead of closing/restarting when you change code
  • Debug on a real device. Yes, you lose testing on multiple versions and resolutions, but for many of us, it's the only bearable solution.

    • Hope this helps a bit...

    I had the same issue, the emulator would freeze at "android_". I fixed it by changing the compatibility mode on emulator.exe to "Windows 7". Now it's always slow, but it's running.

    Open taskmanager and right click on emlulator-arm.exe (*32), klick processor affinity (affiniteit instellen) and select (if you want ofcource) or just select te cores you want to use. Increases the performance a lot for me (with eight threads available)!
