Hello, I have just started with development and would like to ask if Android's QEMU emulator uses any type of hardware acceleration.
I made a simple Android program that extends the WebView activity and loads a webpage at start. That's all it does. It takes 35 seconds to cold start the emulator and acitivity from the Eclipse IDE. It takes 12 seconds to reload the acitivity when emulator is already up & running. Do you think these numbers are normal? Is there any possibility to speed up the emulation speed of QEMU? --- I can try to answer to this question myself. In the past, I used QEMU with KQEMU kernel module that remarkably boosted the emulation speed on X86 hardware. But Android runs on ARM CPU (not Intel or AMD CPU), so KQEMU module cannot be used here. ---- My PC is Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 3.00GHz. 4GB RAM. Running Eclipse IDE 3.5 (Galileo) on 64 bit Ubuntu Linux 9.04.
