Takes to many RAM when start Android Studio and only one emulator - android-studio-2.3

Windows 7 (64 bit), RAM = 8 GB, Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM), 3.10 GHz.
Android Studio 2.3.
My machine before start Android Studio:
My machine after start Android Studio AND only one emulator(RAM 512 MB):
It's take 7 GB. As result work very difficult.
Any advice, how fix this problem?
Thanks.

I realize that you're not working with Xamarin.
However, I would like to share the following:
I Recommend at least 16 gigs of RAM when doing mobile development with Xamarin.
I had the same issue with my previous machine that was 12 gigs of RAM.
In my case I was doing Xamarin development which consumes a huge amount of resources. In addition, I also upgraded to SSD.

Windows 8 & ASP.NET MVC & IISExpress low performance on start

We have a pretty big ASP.NET MVC project with a lot of Areas, controllers etc. Everything was fine until I installed the project on my laptop - Windows 8.1, Intel Core i5, 12 GB RAM, 7200 HDD. The project starting time (F5) become extremely slow. I'm waiting for 3-5 minutes until the home page appears in the browser. First I thought that the problem is in my laptop, and I rent a VPS - Windows Server 2012, Intel Xeon 4 core, 14GB Ram, SSD. But the situation is the same - I'm waiting for a while before the first page appears.
What I've tryed:
batch="false" in Web.config (compile optimization was also disabled/enabled)
Disabled Resharper
Disabled IntelliTrace
Disabled MiniProfiler for EF
Disabled Firewall
No anti-virus software
Enabled the concurrent build in the Resharper's God Mode
The RAM disk was also used
dotTrace profiler shows that over 70% of execution time takes the unmanaged code
Debugging symbols caching
The problem has already appeared on PCs of a couple of my collegues. Situation is the same - Windows 8.1, pretty powerful hardware - impossible to work with Visual Studio. Please, if anybody knows where the problem is let us know.
P.S. We use Visual Studio 2013 Update 4, ASP.NET MVC 5, EntityFramework 6.
This works fine for me: Start a 2nd instance of VisualStudio with a minimal Webapp in IIS Express in debug mode and let it still run while working with your 1st Instance VS and do your work!

Can Delphi XE5 produce apps for Windows 8 RT and Windows Phone 8?

Is it possible to use Delphi XE5 or RAD Studio XE5 to create apps for Windows 8 RT (ARM based tablets) and Windows Phone 8, using the same code (Firemonkey) as for Android and iOS?
I searched Embarcadero's website on windows development but it goes a long way to avoid mentioning Windows 8 RT and Windows Phone 8. It states that
Your apps will run on Windows desktops and x86 based tablets with Intel and Intel Atom hardware such as Microsoft Surface Professional, Slate tablets from HP, Asus and others, as well as AMD processor based tablets from Acer, Samsung and more.
Does this mean that Windows 8 RT and Windows Phone 8 are not supported by Delphi/RAD Studio XE5?
Delphi XE5 cannot produce apps that run on WinRT or Win Phone 8.
Work is being done on Windows ARM/RT, Linux Server, TBD.
Take a look Embarcadero RAD Studio Roadmap

To confirm David's accepted answer, I just received a response from Embarcadero support:
Yes, you are correct we DO NOT support Win8 RT or WinPhone8 with Firemonkey. We have not seen a huge demand for these platforms, if there is an increase in demand they might be support, but at the moment we are not supporting them sorry.
So it does not sound like they have any plans to support those platforms in the near future.

Delphi XE and Chromium Embedded Framework running slow under win 7 32 bit

We're using a delphi built application using CEF (1650) and experiencing compatibility issues when running in Windows 7 32 bit OS. The 32 bit app works fine under Win 7 64 bit, our preferred environment, but when run on our vendor's 32 bit Win 7 machines it runs horribly slow until XP service pack 3 compatibility mode is selected. We've ruled out the EXE itself as the culprit but suspect it may be the CEF libraries. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Can Delphi 4 Pro be installed and used reliably on Windows XP (or later)?

Several years ago I used Delphi 4 Pro on a Windows '98 SE machine to create Delphi projects.
Would it be feasible to install the same Delphi 4 Pro on a Windows XP machine (or later OS, such as Windows 7) to view and update older Delphi projects?
I have run Delphi 4 on a variety of 32 bit operating systems without any problems, including 32 bit XP and Win7.
However, on 64-bit Windows 7, and other 64 bit varieties of Windows, including Windows Server 2008 R2, I have found that it is difficult to install, and does not run very well at all.
Moving your existing Delphi 4 code up to Delphi 2007 is probably not going to be very hard though. You should probably consider that option as well.

Exact same question, check there for an answer, at the worst you will have to run VM.

speed up visual studio 2010 build asp.net mvc

Right now our team's ASP.NET MVC 2.0 web project takes about 4 minutes to do build on debug. We have the following things included on our project:
t4MVC templates
compiling the asp.net mvc's views on all builds
My work pc is a
Intel core 2 duo T7250 # 2.00 Mhz.
Windows 7 32 bit ultimate
4 gb ram
I am also getting the same build times, on my desktop
Intel core 2 Duo E6550 Conroe 2.33GHz
6gb ram
ocz ssd drive
I do not see any difference between my desktop and laptop? I am guessing that it CPU bound? I may need to upgrade my box?
I did set this to false, and the build times went from 3 minutes before now down to 5 seconds.
<MvcBuildViews>false</MvcBuildViews>
I believe the problem is the compiling the asp.net mvc views. I am still need to see why it takes so long?
Have you tried building the project with msbuild instead of from visual studio? this may give you a clue where the bottlenecks are.

How to troubleshoot long builds in Visual Studio?
Very long build time in Visual Studio.
I had tried all of the options given too me. I upgrade my machine # home and can build under 15 seconds with true. I am guessing that it is a CPU bound problem.
