While downloading GTA5, I decided to open Android studio, to my surprise, the download speed dropped from 1.8Mbps to 0.3Mbps almost instantly. On closing android studio, the speed went back up to 1.8Mbps. I continued to debug this to find that Android studio was using little to no bandwidth while it was open, yet it still slowed down the download that much?

I am currently completely befuddled. I am not sure what to show, log wise or screenshots, so leave a comment and I'll get back to you.

  • How did you determine that Android Studio wasn't using any bandwidth? Hopefully, you used something other than Task Manager to determine that.

  • And what's wrong with task manager?

  • 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.

  • 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.

    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.
