Help please lr-snes9x next slow

elf0

Hello, I recently trying to use the emulator lr-snes9x next and is very slow in all games.

I'm using
• Raspberry PI2 Model B;
• SD Card 32gb Class 10;
• Retropie 3.6 (I also tested with 3.7);
• No overclock;
• No shaders

Could anyone tell me what is happening? Please.

I think I may be experiencing the same issues. I'm using lr-snes9x-next on the Pi3 and performance is very bad compared to other emulators on certain games. The interesting thing is that it works just fine using the same hardware on a version of RetroPie 3.6 that is packaged for Berryboot. I'm not sure if this might be a Raspien issue. I should also mention I'm multi-booting with NOOBs.

Mystery solved (for me anyway). Add the following to /etc/rc.local:

echo ondemand > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
echo ondemand > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor
echo ondemand > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/cpufreq/scaling_governor
echo ondemand > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu3/cpufreq/scaling_governor

Found the fix here:

This should be added to the wiki until a fix for Jessie is out.

There is no known probem on Jessie - and nothing I can do without more information - the governor is automatically set to ondemand on my system.
