What is Idle skipping?

It keeps your CPU away from dropping the usage (throtling) so the slowdowns doesn´t occur often AFAIK.

You know, if you just have no idea about something, you always have the option of simply not replying at all instead of making stuff up out of nowhere.

And once again you speak when you have no idea what you're talking about. In the future, if you don't know, please shut up instead of misleading people.

1 week ban because that's at least the 10th time someone complains about that from you.

Idle skipping try to detect infinite loops in the cpu emulation. As they can only be terminated by interrupts, we are able to skip emulation until the next interrupt happens.

Thank you Degasus. While the guy probably should not have guessed an answer, I was wondering why people were more eager to yell at the guy then answer the question.

thanks!
