In my first post, I used the version 3.0.0ubunt (from PPP) so I think the results will be similar. If you insist, I can do testing on a specific revision.

I also doubt glakkeclock Undecided
Do you know a tool to monitor our graphics card under Linux? I do not think the rendering is software (GPU takes a few degrees when running Xenoblade) but I'm going to make sure of.

That's not what you said in your post:
Quote:Dolphin version used is 3.0-201 (installed from the ubuntu PPA)

3.0-201 is not 3.0. 3.0-201 is 201 revisions after 3.0 was released.

You're not using software rendered. If you were you wouldn't be able to get even 1 fps. Don't worry about gpu usage, your gpu is good enough I can assure you of that.

In this first post, I changed the version in the meantime Smile

I am ashamed of what I have to tell you: the backend, which uses the graphics acceleration, of my mediacenter was crashed during my tests (This is the first time in 2 years). After reboot, my emulation speed (with the default configuration) is near 100%... It is possible to edit my previous posts to indicate that the results are biased?

FYI, I used the ATI drivers to measure GPU usage : 0% (most of the time) and peaks of 30%.
Code:
aticonfig --adapter=0 --od-getclocks

sorry to have bothered to so few. Angel

I think the new users can't edit : https://encrypted.google.com/#q=edit+post+site:forums.dolphin-emu.org
Ya, new users can't edit their posts because that action was misused too much.
Re Big Grin
This time, I have exciting news!
My SPEED value is 100% only if I run Dolphin-emu with super-user rights. Amazing, no?

I retrieved the standard output (attached) but I do not see anything significant.
Sorry, we had to confirm sending the attachment.
Shame on me - Part 2

I found why there was a difference with or without privileges... root dolphin.ini config file using the ALSA audio engine and other users PulseAudio.
I checked using the PulseAudio audio engine for root and I observed the same decrease in performance.
