Here's my problem (which I didn't notice in any threads that I saw):
I've already set everything according to the speed guides I could find (meaning the one on this site as well as High Priority in the Task Manager), did some of my own experimentation, and I have this strange problem with games. I have Paper Mario and the Thousand Year door, and when I play the game, it works great for about 1-2 minutes. Perfect frame rates and everything. After that time, it will slow to a crawl (10-30% speed, 10ish FPS). This isn't just because of the menu vrs the game, if I load a save state instantly it runs very well in game where it was slow before. If I pause and wait a while it will return to normal speed for bit, but then return to being very slow. It will always be very fast from the initial load, so I'm wondering if there's anyone who knows about this kind of issue that can assist. I also have Luigi's mansion which works somewhat similarly.
Tldr: My games run great for ~2 minutes, then slow to a crawl. Pausing helps.
Ok so mandatory specs:
I am using the latest stable release, Dolphin 2.0 for x64 systems.
HP dv4-1222nr
Relevant:
Vista x64
AMD Turion X2 RM-72 2.10 GHz
4gb ram,
ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics RS780M (Def able to play modern games like SC2)
