Looks like haxm has the best performance, however you might want to use hyper-v if you're running other hyper-v containers since it clashes... https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32226559/making-hyper-v-...

Newest windows versions allow running docker and the android emulator side by side,through windows container platform

Do you have a link to show how to do that? Sounds useful, but the only reference I've found to that is to do it from Visual Studio and using Xamarin C# and not 'native' Java.

Once you enable the container platform in windows, and enable the bios setting for virtualization, it should just work, when I get back to my home computer I will look the details

Alright, so I just made a run of it and verified it all works. As you say, the tutorial from Microsoft is for VS[0], but it actually talks about the android emulator, which is the same thing that Android Studio uses, just make sure you update it to latest, atm it's 27.3.10 Admittedly, the startup time seems a bit longer than with HAXM, but otherwise the emulation is pretty responsive.
