Aug 6, 2018 at 15:55 comment added Ramhound Anyways my point of the Task Manager comment was to determine how you were verifying the reported bandwidth of both processes. GTA 5 Launcher and/or Task Manager might be reporting the incorrect speed. It appears @Mokubai is going down the correct rabbit hole.
Aug 6, 2018 at 15:54 comment added Mokubai Okay, if you go to the performance tab in task manager does the CPU lock to a particular clock speed when running Android Studio? Do any of the other graphs show odd usage changes with or without the Studio running? Does Android Studio use the GPU or other devices when not expected?
Aug 6, 2018 at 15:44 comment added TheChubbyPanda No, they are on separate disks.
Aug 6, 2018 at 15:43 comment added Mokubai Was Android Studio using the same disk as the download? Could be that it might be doing something which is making the downloader wait to access the disk and slowing it down that way.
Aug 6, 2018 at 15:43 comment added TheChubbyPanda 1.4 Mbps does correlate roughly to 359.9KBps taking into account the inaccuracy of task manager. The total bandwidth I have is 16Mbps, while AS is open, the total down speed is nowhere near that of the total achieveable.
Aug 6, 2018 at 15:40 comment added Ramhound @TheChubbyPanda - I have not confused the two screenshots. 356.9 kilobytes / second is equal to 2.8552 megabits/second. Task Manager is reporting that the bandwidth being consumed by the GTA 5 Launcher is only 2.0 megabits/second. Task Manager is off by nearly 50% which means Android Studio is using at least 3.0 megabits/second.
Aug 6, 2018 at 15:36 comment added Ramhound To determine the bandwidth a process is using? It's inaccurate. In the first screenshot it indicates it 1.4 Mbps which isn't 359.9 KB/sec and in the second it's 14.3 Mbps. Furthermore, it indicates Android Studio is using 2 Mbps. Between the two processes at that point, you would be getting around 1 MB/sec, which explains the behavior you described. As I said Task Manager is inaccurate to determine the bandwidth used by a process.
Aug 6, 2018 at 15:33 comment added TheChubbyPanda I have been using AS forever now, so no, it's not the first time at all... It's not downloading anyhing else, at least according to it.
Aug 6, 2018 at 15:32 comment added Bill Hileman Is this the first time you've used AS since downloading and installing it? AS is a major resource hog and it does have to download a LOT of stuff in addition to the initial install, but most of the downloads are when you go through the SDK/setup options and decide which libraries you want to use. For what it's worth, once you get past the initial downloads I doubt it uses much bandwidth at all, but the other resources, RAM/disk space, are massive.
Aug 6, 2018 at 15:30 comment added TheChubbyPanda And what's wrong with task manager?
Aug 6, 2018 at 15:28 comment added Ramhound How did you determine that Android Studio wasn't using any bandwidth? Hopefully, you used something other than Task Manager to determine that.
