Is it possible to do what they did with Gallium3D (Native DirectX 10-11 port for Linux) with it's own direct API to render like a GameCube. It would only work on Linux though, but it would be interesting to boot into something like DolphinOS for best performance. Here is an article about Gallium3D http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=mesa_gallium3d_d3d11&num=1

So essentially instead of converting GCN shaders to another API (which can take time and cause stuttering), you could port the GCN API to run directly on PC hardware. I am aware this is no easy task, but it seems like it may be necessary to get a complete performance boost in dolphin. If the tools do not exist, sometimes we must build our own. I don't have any skill in this area, but I would be willing to donate $20 to see this done.
