I'm doing Xamarin.Android development form Visual Studio 2017. And I find my AVD runs out of memory (88% usage) after a few hours debugging and become sluggish, no matter how I use it, be it start-stopping my App frequently from VS2017 or just leave it lying doing nothing.

I want to give it more memory so I configured 8GB memory from Android Device Manager. I'm running Windows 10 64bit on my PC which has 32GB RAM so there's plenty left.

enter image description here

However after I boot up the AVD again it shows only 3GB memory instead of the 8GB I gave it. Did I miss something?

I'm using Android Emulator 30.0.12-6466327. Android Device Manager is provided by Xamarin SDK form VS2017.

  • Restart your PC after update the info of Emulator . In addition , VS 2019 had released . You update the IDE to the latest version . – Lucas Zhang Jun 30 '20 at 14:15
  • @LucasZhang-MSFT Restarted PC to no avail. I'll try VS2019 later and see it makes a difference. Is there any reason behind this strange behavior? – Lionet Chen Jun 30 '20 at 23:27
