A Vista dual-core 2.5GHz, 4GB RAM notebook, with a 5400rpm hard drive, running on a battery, starts an Android 2.2 emulator on an existing AVD in 95 seconds, from [Launch] click to a working home screen. The same equipment, starting a brand-new AVD (and creating the data partitions and such) does the same in 4 minutes 40 seconds. If your Windows machine takes 15 minutes to start the emulator, you may wish to consider acquiring faster hardware. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
