Android Studio consuming 100% disk

Question

My Android Studio is consuming 100% of the disk all the time, even when it has no task running on backgroud, this disk usage leaves the whole system very slow. Looking at the Task Manager is not only the Android Studio that is using the disk, sometimes it is the System, sometimes it is the Java, but always when it is open, its I close the Android Studio disk use back to normal.

Does anyone else have this problem? It is normal Android Studio? It has how to solve?

The Android Studio version is 2.3 (the problem occurred even in previous versions). Windows 10 64 bits. Core i5-5200U, 4GB ram.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I managed to solve the problem. From what I discovered the Android Studio was with little RAM, I think that so it used a lot the disk paging, I changed the settings to increase the memory in the menu Help > Edit Custom VM Options.... I left so:

# custom Android Studio VM options, see http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/configuration
-Xms1560m
-Xmx2048m
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m
-XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=450m

In my case this solved, the use of disk is normal now.
