Anyone has this issue that if you share just the Android Studio window via hangouts it gets extremely slow on mac?

Do you run out of memory, and started swapping? That has been the main reason for this in my experience.

I don't think that's the issue, I have 24gb, would be crazy if sharing the AS's window would cause it to be out of memory 😞

I got 32GB ram but still sometimes Android Studio manages to take it all along with a browser tab or 2

But in this case doesn't matter, even if I have just the initial window where you pick which project to open and share it, it's super laggy

[David]

So sharing entire screen is not a problem?

If I share the entire screen, it's totally fine

Think I've seen this on macOS with Jitsi in the past, not sure exactly why though.

Found a solution! Adding -Dsun.java2d.metal=false to the VM options as suggested in this comment. Now everything seems to be running smoothly.
