Android x86 emulator extremely slow

Issue

At the moment I'm developing an application with Android wear support but I have no smartwatch. Now I want to test my application on an emulator but that is the problem. The emulator need up to 1.5 hours to start. I created one with following settings:

<!-- language: lang-none -->
Target                 Google APIs (Google Inc.) API lev 22
CPU/ABI                Google APIs Intel Atom (x86)
Device                 5.1" WVGA (480x800: mdpi)
Skin                   No Skin

RAM                     512      //also tried with 768
VM Heap                  32
Internal Storage        200
Use Host GPU           true      //also tried with false

I installed HAXM, enabled it in the BIOS settings and if run

sc query intelhaxm

I get the status 4 like it is written here. I set the HAXM memmory to 2GB so it should be enought. I also do not run any other VM software and I have even reinstalled my Windows. The only interesting information from the LogCat is that there are many lines (up to 70%) of Suspending all threads

My computer has the following Hardware:

<!-- language: lang-none -->
Windows 7 x64
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
8GB RAM

Do you have any ideas why my emulator is so slow?

EDIT: Here I posted the target for a smartphone device but it's also so slow for wearable devices so Genymotion is no real alternative because it has no images for them.

Solution

Well dont know for sure but all the native emulator in android are very slow.

I suggest that you use the Genymotion which is very faster emulators for android than native.

It will give you user experience almost as of devices though it does have the same limitation of android native emulators.
