# kdbhalala/avdslim > A Go CLI tool that cuts Android Virtual Device (AVD) emulator RAM usage from ~8 GB to ~1.5 GB on Apple Silicon and Linux via -lowram flags, host GPU acceleration, and disabling background services. - Magnitude: 0.0 out of 10 — Steady - Stars: 209 total · +0 stars on 2026-10-02 (UTC) - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Developer tools · Language: Go · License: MIT · Created: 2026-09-16 · Last push: 2026-09-27 - GitHub: https://github.com/kdbhalala/avdslim · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/kdbhalala/avdslim ## Useful for - Launch an Android emulator with reduced memory usage while developing on a laptop - Disable Google background services in an AVD to speed up app builds and testing - Restore stock emulator settings with the restore command after debugging ## Why it’s here - The repository is 16 days old and already has 209 stars. ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 8 - Issues and pull requests: 1 - Watchers: 0 - Average over the last week: 1 per day - Usual pace: 11 per day - Latest release: v1.0.15 (2026-09-23) ## Stars per day, last 30 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-10-04 … 2026-11-02: None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None ## Magnitude by day, last 14 days 09-19 2.9, 09-20 2.0, 09-21 1.4, 09-22 1.4, 09-23 1.0, 09-24 1.3, 09-25 0.7, 09-26 0.8, 09-27 0.9, 09-28 0.0, 09-29 0.0, 09-30 0.0, 10-01 0.0, 10-02 0.0 --- Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score. Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast. Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
