Why emulator is very slow in Android Studio?

 

I just setup Android Studio on my PC, which is new launch to develop Android application.

My problem is that, when I try to run my small app in emulator, it take to much time to launch and after then emulator is working slow too.

AVD settings

AVD Name: Glaxy
Device: Glaxy Nexus (4.65", 720x 1280: xhdpi)
Target: Android 4.2.2 - API Level 17
Memory Option: Ram 500, VM Heap 64
Internal Storage: 200MiB

I have good window pc: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.93Ghz and Ram is 3gb

I am new in Android development and java.

The Best Solution is to use Android Emulator with Intel Virtualization Technology.

Now if your system have a Processor that have a feature called as Intel Virtualization Technology, then Intel X86 images will be huge benefit for you. because it supports Intel® Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager (Intel® HAXM).

To check that your processor support HAXM or not : Click Here

You need to manually install the Intel HAXM in your system. Follow these steps for that.

  • First of all go to - adt -> extras -> intel -> Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager
  • Make sure that Intel Virtualization is enabled from BIOS Settings.
  • Now install Intel HAXM in your system and select amount of memory(i prefer to set it as default value).
  • After installation create new Android Virtual Device (AVD) which should have a Target of API Level xx
  • Now set the CPU/ABI as Intel Atom(x86).
  • If you are on Windows then do not set RAM value more than 768 MB while setting up an emulator.
  • Run the emulator. It will be blazing fast then ordinary one.

    • Hope it will be helpful for you. :) Thanks.

    Just edit the AVD settings as below,

    Enable snapshot options and please use INTEL HAXM software for speedup.just visit https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-hardware-accelerated-execution-manager-intel-haxm and download...

    The new Android Studio incorporates very significant performance improvements for the AVDs (emulated devices).

    But when you initially install the Android Studio (or, when you update to a new version, such as Android Studio 2.0, which was recently released), the most important performance feature (at least if running on a Windows PC) is turned off by default. This is the HAXM emulator accelerator.

    Open the Android SDK from the studio by selecting its icon from the top of the display (near the right side of the icons there), then select the SDKTools tab, and then check the box for the Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM installer), click OK. Follow instructions to install the accelerator.

    Be sure to completely exit Android Studio after installing, and then go to your SDK folder (C:usersusernameAppDataLocalextrasintelHardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager, if you accepted the defaults). In this directory Go to extrasintelHardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager and run the file named "intelhaxm-android.exe".

    Then, re-enter the Studio, before running the AVD again.

    Also, I found that when I updated from Android Studio 1.5 to version 2.0, I had to create entirely new AVDs, because all of my old ones ran so slowly as to be unusable (eg, they were still booting up after five minutes - I never got one to completely boot). As soon as I created new ones, they ran quite well.
