Stutter when accessing Mem Card/Saving

[Kierwynn]

So I am running the most recent (as of posting) version of Dolphin, 4.0-2924. I am running it as Administrator, and even with a High Priority (in task manager)

I can run games no problem but anytime I go to save, the moment it attempts to access memory card, and while writing to the card, it has a very strange stutter. My VPS drops to 5-7 and emulation speed to 10%. The process itself seems to run at normal speed, and I am not encountering any issues saving/loading.

This is new, at least to r2824, my previous version r1382 didn't have this issue.

EDIT: I notice this happens in Wind Waker, Gauntlet Dark Legacy, and Super Smash Bros Melee, doesnt appear to affect loading of XGRA Extreme Racing, only the saving.

happens in Fzero GX aswell, but i didn't really care about saving performance lmao

Its not really a huge issue i suppose, but it is an issue nontheless, and a new bug that wasnt present before could be the underlying issue to another larger bug. Rather report it than let it go unnoticed.

It's a bug in Dolphin's EXI code when we added memcard timings. A lot of work needs to be done to fix it, a potential workaround for now would be to disable read timings, as that's what's causing the problem.
