EmulationStation GUI sluggish with scrapped systems

@RedDog If I was on Windows I'd probably do that. Interested in learning what people use.
I'm on a Mac, so I use ApplePi-Baker, though I won't recommend it directly as it's closed source and requests your sudo password to run
dd(which is needed, but still doesn't make me less suspicious).@AlexMurphy you're right, that's what I aim to get to as well. My problem is that, between listening to old games' podcasts or having old games come to mind every now and then, I'm frequently adding "oh, just one more game" to the collection. Last week I took note of a couple ZX Spectrum games I forgot to add originally, so those will make it there soon. :)

@pjft Yip. I know. And I keep doing the same but it's good to have a point to start from. At the moment I'm really only trying to get obscure stuff set up. I got Daphne working... which I was amazed at, and never play because it is shite. All my ROMs are on the laptop or just a click away.

I have my roms on a NAS alogn with all of my other files, so when I download a new rom, i stick it on the Pi and the NAS, so my roms are all backed up, I dont care about that,
what I care to backup is the scraping which takes a bloody age to get done, I do not want to repeat that!
then I stick saved games over on the NAS as and when I decide I have any that I care about.
I prefer to spend my time playing though, I spent an hour last night watching the screen flash text while LR-Mame installed, only to find that the game ran slow :(
