I've got 4GB of RAM memory @800mhz, Phenom 9750 x4 @2.4GHz, yet the emulator is working really slow. I'm currently learning the basics of Android development, so I wonder, what should I do to maximize the performance of the emulator? Which device do I pick and what should be the settings? I do realize my PC is outdated and slow, but surely it can do better?

    The emulator is always slow. It's best to test on devices if possible. – Snailer Jul 15 '13 at 13:58
  • Note that the emulator only uses one core, so unless the Phenom has AMD's equivalent of Intel's "Turbo Boost", the additional cores will not help the emulator much. – CommonsWare Jul 15 '13 at 14:00

Make sure you aren't emulating another architecture in your settings. Choose Intel instead of any others and try again. I think you have to create a new device but I'm not certain.
