pj 1.5 final. speed issues

[emuguy]

some of my roms slow down in pj 1.5 final whilst they were full speed in the beta version. why is this? someone sai something about changing the settings to match the the settings in the beta cos they have been changed for the final. which settings are they? the main culprit is perfect dark, the graphics issues are gone but the slowdown is back . still j64: rocks

counter factor, memory protection for self-mod code, ABL - all can cause speed changes.
Pausing was most likely cured with Counter Factor set to a lower value.
Flickering was most likely cured with some Framebuffer emulation effect, which of course is slower

You guys, If you set the Rom settings for Perfect Dark to use the 4kbit Eeprom instead of the 16kbit it will dramaticaly speed the game up. I've tested the differences on 2 separate computers and it does help a lot. The major disadvantage to doing that is the in-game save no longer works. Ya don't really need it anyways though because you can just enable the memory card from the input plugins.

The old (.rdb) files originaly had the Eeprom set to 4kbit on mistake which happed to work out well in speeding up PD.

I put my old rdb file on the new one and pj 1.5 started working fast, but old bugs also came back =). Well, the important thing is that it's working fast again.
