UPDATE: This issue has been fixed in version 30.0.26 as mentioned here. The temporary fix mentioned below may not be needed anymore.

Yes, this issue is seen in version 30.0.12 of android emulator.

As a temporary fix, which will work only on emulators without PlayStore, disable Multi-core cpu option

Avd Manager -> Select emulator -> edit -> Advanced Settings -> Multi-core CPU -> UNCHECK this option

The devices with PlayStore images do not allow changing anything about the device this won't work.

I have not seen any major lag by disabling the multi-core cpu option. Emulator is just as responsive and loads under 2 seconds, ready to be used.

Tested on Ryzen 5 1600, 16gb RAM, Windows 10 Pro, emulator 30.0.12.
