Android emulator: 'HAX is working' but emulator unbearably slow on fast PC

1.1k Views Asked by At

I have Intel HAX installed, with the OS X 10.9 hotfix, and am launching the emulator with:

~/Applications/AndroidDevTools/sdk/tools/emulator -avd Android43Fast

When the emulator runs I recieve:

HAX is working and emulator runs in fast virt mode

The emulator runs around 5-6 frames a second, with a visible redraw rate and serious latency. The machine is an MBA 2013, with 512GB SSD and 8GB RAM.

  • Is HAX really running? I receive the message, but I don't trust it. Performance doesn't resemble Intel's HAX videos at all, and does not seem faster than the regular emulator.
  • How can I make the emulator run with acceptable latency, with or without HAX?
