Running slow on a Macbook

Hi there

Recently got Dolphin for my Macbook and have been trying to play Wii games (Super Mario Galaxy 2 to be specific), with it working fine, except for the speed fluctuates between 40% and 80% (usually around 50%).

Specs:
2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256MB

Now I know this is a lot to ask in the first place of my Mac but.. I've looked at the 'Increasing Performance' guides and stuff, but as I have the Mac version, a lot of the windows are different (can't even find the options for 720/1080 for one thing...).

Can anyone give help/suggestions to get the game up to 90-100%/good framerate (even if the graphics suffer). Or is it just too much to hope for? Thanks.

With that hardware 90-100% speed is impossible.

There's no options at all then? I've got several GC games running at 100% comfortably, just not Wii games.

This just in, Wii is more powerful than Gamecube.
