The guy on our team has Mac Book Pro with i7 + SSD and says in MacOS it is almost "instantaneous"
and will test it (and hopefully measure it).
I have the same setup (Macbook Pro with i7, 8GB Ram, 512 GB SSD) and can verify that there is very little difference between debugging the application in the emulator and debugging on a real device.

When I hit 'Step over', the debugger steps over with maybe a 3 or 4 hundred milliseconds delay. Starting up a new emulator takes less then 15 seconds, and starting the application and connecting the debugger less then ten seconds.

The emulator is noticeably slower when it comes to reading data from disk, processing user input, and everything associated with WebView. But it's useable. Well, not big websites, WebView really sucks in the emulator. The pages render ok, but panning and clicking is like pulling a spoon through Marmite.

SSDs aren't cheap. But considering the time they save you totally worth the investment ... just like a4m ;-)

cheers, Axel
