Ok, here is what I did to make the Android 3 emulator slightly more
usable:
- increased emulator vm.heap to 256 from 49
- reduced the resolution to 1024x768, default was much higher
- emulator ram to 512 (tried 1024 but it crashed )
- also increased the eclipse vm to 1024
Its slightly more faster than before!!!
