installing APK via ADB hangs the emulator

I am trying to install an apk in the emulator using following command:

adb install xyz.apk

But it takes forever and then hangs the emulator.

I don't know what to do cause I have tried the following

  1. Start the emulator with big partition size
    emulator @test -no-boot-anim -partition-size 256
    (same problem)

  2. Install in a new emulator same result.

Please Help me. Thanks in advance.

This install hang can also happen if you build the APK for ARMv7 only and then try to install it on the emulator because the emulator requires an x86 image.
