Except I have my resolution set to 1366x768, and I'm forcing 16:9. Even with these low settings, though, my speed dips to below 70% sometimes when I'm outside on Outset island at the beginning of Wind Waker. Indoors, it's fine. Outdoors, it's sometimes fine.

Thousand Year Door also chugs outside in Rogueport... :/
And it also crashes when I first step onto the pedestal in front of the Thousand Year Door proper.

My specs:
Windows 7 64 Bit Home Premium
Intel i5 2410M 2.3ghz with Turboboost
GeForce GT 550M
4GB RAM

Dolphin 3.0-716-Dirty
Lol, no it shouldn't

I'm asking for help. holy crap
Well, you could try the official Dolphin 3.0 release. It should be faster than the newer revisions but still pretty accurate.
4ghz is fast
2ghz is slow

intel i-serie cpu

intel i-serie cpu

it turbo boosts up to...*looks it up*...2.90 ghz.

if it was a quad core, would it be faster?

Another question, just started using 3.0. It says the memory card in slot A is corrupted. Is there any way to continue using my save files that I used with my previous version of Dolphin with 3.0?
A little bit but i think, you won't see much difference.

Turbo boost will work if your CPU does not overheat
2.9GHz is single core mode . Dolphin is a dual core app -> 2.6GHz

I have Hardware Monitor to do that. I'll check it in a sec.

I edited my above message, but I'll ask again here, because I don't know if anyone saw it.

Don't know about that but
You should use Realtemp or Coretemp
The other software like CPUZ give me incorrect result about my CPU clock speed
