Dolphin on the pi 4?

Raspberry Pi 3B+ has a Videocore 4 GPU with 28.8GFLOPs available iirc. Videocore 5 is ~2.5x as powerful, and Videocore 6 is likely as powerful or more so. The benchmarks shown off earlier in this thread are initial drivers and running on partly incompatible software, yet we see massive gains to the GPU, the benchmarks from the video "A wild raspberry pi 4 appears" shows this graph:

That is not a ~50% improvement, it's a ~100% improvement. We don't know much about the GPU yet, but it's more than double, considering Videocore 5 is ~2.5x, I'd suggest raspberry pi 4 is closer to ~100GFLOPs, and Tomshardware had no problem with a 20% overclock on the GPU from 500MHz to 600MHz, which should put it around an Intel integrated HD 2000 GPU (110GFLOPs), but with Vulkan support likely on the way.

From the Intel HD 2000 link I gave above, you can see dolphin is playable on GPUs in this tier, if ES 3.2 or Vulkan support comes to Videocore 6, I suspect Dolphin will be seen in Retropie at a very playable performance.
