I read on many other topics that the Android emulator starts really slow. Indeed, it takes +15 mins to start. However, on my machine is slow even after that.
The 'phone' responds with a 3-4 seconds delay and everything has a huge lag.
Is there any way to improve the performance of my laptop (Asus 1201N) is too rusty for the Android emulator?
PS: Tried in different emulator resolutions and the result is the same
Edit: My laptop has 2 cores with HyperThreading. And it shows as 4 CPU in Device Manager. However, when using the emulator, just one of the graphs is at 100%. Can I do something to make it work multi core?
LDPlayer allows players to run Android APP and Games smoothly on their computers. LDPlayer is the second most popular emulator in the world. It's South East Asia's best and the fastest android emulator within the gaming market. LDPlayer allows players to run their mobile games and app on PC for free.
The Android Emulator is very slow. The main reason is because it is emulating the ARM CPU & GPU, unlike the iOS Simulator, which runs x86 code instead of the ARM code that runs on the actual hardware.
Reduce resolution. Normally, the higher a system's resolution, the more hardware power is required, and the slower the emulators run. Hence, reducing resolution, to some extent, speeds up system performance.
Do you have "Disable Boot Animation" checked?
Also, if that doesn't fix it, one thing that helps is that you never actually have to close the emulator screen while you're coding. If you click debug when it's already open, your APK will get uploaded to the emulator and start pretty much immediately. For some reason it took me a while to figure out that I didn't have to manually close the emulator.
