Android Studio Startup Is Taking Long

I installed Android Studio, Created a project name and it gives me a popup with a title 'Building Project name Gradle project info' and it contains 'Gradle: Downloading URL' and it

Solution 1:

It could be because the default allocation of ram to the emulator is too high, and it's testing it. Check out the emulators and make sure the memory it's trying to use is reasonable. Anything over one gig makes my computer run like crap, and I have 8g ram.

Solution 2:

When you create the first project, it needs to download the correct version of Gradle, as well as the Android Gradle plugin and various dependencies -- these aren't part of the default installation. How long it takes depends on your network connection. Once that stuff is downloaded, subsequent builds should be much faster.
