I'm running dolphin 3.0-721 on a system with:

I7 930@3.8ghz, 16 gigs 1600mhz, 2ssd drives in raid and nvidia geforce 580 gtx.

When running zelda twilight princess, standing in hyrule field my cpu drain is 52%, and gpu is barely touched, what the hell???

help please, or is this emulator badly optimized for hardware and i'll have to leave it at that?

oh, and dolphin is run in realtime priority and all cores affinity.

24fps in hyrule field btw.

The Hyrule Field area running slow is a known issue, the rest of the game should be fine with that CPU, though. Not every game and every area of a game works as fast or as normal as it would on the real hardware.
