btw, in other games, setting the watchdog lower increases fps and cpu usage, because nothing is holding back the gpu core, but not actually get faster, as expected. Doubt this patch will be commited.

Holy Crap!!!! My speeds are back to how they were in 3286 once I tinker with the watchdog. Vids being made now for youtube. This is freakin amazing. I've been waiting 600 rvns to get back to my old speeds and this is doing it. Thank you son thank you.
I got a video up. Give it a look and see whatchall think? The speed for me at least on the rvn's had been slow for mario kart wii ever since 3286. For me at least, altering that watchdog timer a little bit has got me back and even faster then my old 3286. I think this may vary from computer system to system?

I never thought there would be even more games that benefit from low watchdog.
It doesn't actually increase the amount of frames displayed on screen but increases speed, so: * Cpu Core (1), doesn't wait for Gfx Core (2) to finish (frameskipping anyone?). * The fps counter is actually measuring Core 1 cycles instead of 2 as of older revs (which puts in evidence the watchdog's effects). I think it's going to be better to add two different counters, one for Core 1 cycles (processed fps) and the other Core 2 cycles (displayed fps). As a final thought, the more optimised the GFX emulation core gets, the less will the low watchdog impact be. This way, this config will be useless once Core 2 emulation takes equal or less cpu cycles than Core 1.

CacoFFF that does make alot of sense. I got a feeling one of the developers will latch on to whats going on and roll with it soon. For now though, the enjoyment factor is back to seeing newer rvns come out with the same or better speeds and now with improvements in sound. Dolphin emulator development is rocking.
Just for another comparison, I uploaded one more vid to compare and contrast the old rvn to the newer one. Give it a look. Old vid Link is in Description. Speed to me seems to be back to what it use to be and for Tatsunoko vs Capcom we now have a full menu which was fixed couple hundred rvns but will speed now. Tatsunoko vs Capcom Wii Dolphin 3858 with Watchdog Timer Lowered +1 Mace to ALL and to ALL a +1 Mace!!!!
