Why the fuck is android studio such an unoptimized POS?

It sucks up resources like a sponge.
And Gradle just pushes the cores to the max.
Simulator is a memory hogging Pos too.

I had to buy a new laptop just to run it faster.

I had
AMD A8 4500M
8gb ram, running on Ubuntu.

Now I have macbook-pro 15 in. And it still can ramp us the fans.

Ffs get your shit together jetbrains.

    To be fair, intellij is not bad, even with projects on gradle. Beefy, but not bad. Android Studio though...

    @TYML I have accumulated a bunch of android devices now. So I can test on various configurations

    I7 quad in Mac can finally handle it though.

    I have a HP with a dual core i5@3.20ghz hyperthreaded and 16gb of ram and Android studio with a vm runs fine for me. The vm runs smooth as well. Did some stuff to make the VM run smoother though can remember what exactly.
