Problem
Is there a way to reduce memory used by android emulator? When I turn on Resource Monitor, It commits over 800MB(I guess this is the reason for all my computer's lags)! My info: OS: Window 7, 2GB RAM, CPU core i3. Emulator: Device RAM size: 512MB, data partition size: 384MB, Skin: HVGA 480x320, SD Card: 4GiB.
