does the speed of the emulator also relies on the source code??
will enhancing the source code speed up dolphin

If you're having to ask this question then I'm pretty sure you've misunderstood something and I'm not sure what or how to explain it, but the answer is pretty much 'yes, of course.'

I mean, the source code is what dolphin is built from, if you have a look at the pr's on github you can see the changes people are making to it, and they usually have explanations what the changes do. 01-20-2018, 09:59 PM

Probably, I'd say take a look at it and see what improvements you can make to it that actually make it run faster without breaking anything

So, I'm waiting for a PR which removes all redundant white spaces to speed up the emulation

I should make a PR that removes any video rendering the emulator does. That would definitely be a major performance boost.

Its speedup, especially on mobile devices, is so great... 01-22-2018, 10:39 AM
You're right, how could I forget that? It's weird how all these people complaining about speed don't just try using it.

Perfect for blind speedruns.
From France with love.
