title: Android Studio emulator extremely slow
body: <p>I have Android Studio updated at latest release (today is April 22nd, 2017) and Haxm installed, but the Android emulator is completely useless. It is extremely slow. </p>
  
  <p>I don't know why, a few days ago it was running fast and smooth. Then I restarted my computer and it became extremely slow. It must be some reason for this.</p>
  
  <p>Please, do not answer to install Genymotion. Genymotion doesn't allow me to emulate the phone in the free version.</p>
  
  <p>As I said, intel haxm is installed. </p>
  
  <p>The message "Process system isn't responding" is displaying all the time.</p>

  <p><strong>UPDATE April 25th, 2017</strong>:
  My Android Studio installed a new update (I cannot specify what got updated) and now the emulator suddenly runs fast again (the same AVDs, I haven't created new ones)
  But this same behavior has happened before. I am sure that in a few days/weeks it will suddenly run extremely slow again, and it will be this way for a few days/weeks, after another update will run smooth again. This has been happening for me during months.
  I will post here when that happens.</p>

  <p><strong>UPDATE April 30th, 2017</strong>:
  My Android Studio installed a new update (Google Repository) and now the emulator suddenly is going extremely slow (the same AVDs, I haven't created new ones). I am sure that in a few days/weeks it will suddenly run fast again.</p>
