Of course when you have delusional idiots that claim that a certain members build is faster/better than another members build, then it is no wonder.
I guess the decrease in speed can either be blamed on accuracy (which is a good thing) or sloppy unoptimized code (which is a bad thing), either way you will just have to bring these issues to the attention of the developers and hope the fix these issues and optimize their code a bit. I think that with all the issues hacks present, developers are focusing on accurate emulation, fast accurate emulation is sort of a contradiction. Hacks wouldn't be minded all that much if they didn't cause issues and games looked and performed as good as on the actual hardware, or if games looked as good with hacks as they do with accurate emulation.
According to rodolfoosvaldobogadoQuote:this rev is faster than my previus rev. about the requirement, yes the price of correct emulation is more graphic power, sorry to tell but is the only way to achive correct results
He is only claiming that he optimized one of his last commits, but the speed increase is debatable since I have never noticed an increase or decrease of speed with the commit in question. There are also several hundred other commits where no attempts have been made to fix or optimize the buggy/unoptimized code yet, and therefore are responsible for the current performance issues with Dolphin.
