Anyone else having terrible performance of Android emulator on M1 macs? It used to be smooth and fast, but after an update i'm barely getting 20fps. I set emulated performance graphics to Hardware (GLES 2.0) but its all the same. I'm using Android Studio Hedgehog 2023.1.1 Canary 1 with Emulator 33.1.10

Turns out this is the <https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/271701966|issue>, as pointed out by <@ULU4CLNNL>  in this <https://twitter.com/saketme/status/1632494436692242433?s=20|twitter thread>, and setting emulated performance graphics to Hardware (GLES 2.0) on device manager does absolutely nothing as it prints out this in the logs
```Your GPU drivers may have a bug. Switching to software rendering.```
So you have to force the emulator to use the host gpu by running the emulator via the terminal
```./emulator -avd Resizable_API_33 -gpu host```

Can you confirm you’re using the Google Play image?

If so, can you please comment on this macOS specific bug? <https://issuetracker.google.com/270034824>
