I am not complaining I am just wondering if something isn't working right considering it doesn't even use up 100% of one core. I would assume if my computer was just too slow it would run at 100% of one core and then struggle. Not just run slow and have idle time. That is just me though. I will rule out os problems maybe run it in boot camp. Thanks for the replies thus far. I think I was right to maintain 3.5 on opensuse as long as I did.
I knew I would get snarky answers just for asking a question.
Dolphin very rarely uses all of one CPU core, it doesn't work that way, because of the fact it has to emulate a different system, the Processor spends a fair amount of time waiting. Of course, speed is still very important, just trying to explain to the best of my knowledge.
