PCSX2 SVN r4998

EmuCR:PS2 emulatorPCSX2 SVN r4998 is released. PCSX2 is an open source PlayStation 2 (PS2) emulator for the Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems. With the most recent versions, many PS2 games are playable (although speed limitations have made play-to-completion tests for many games impractical), and several games are claimed to have full functionality.

PCSX2 SVN Changelog:
r4998
GSdx: Renamed the sw thread setting to "extra threads".

- 0: no multi-threading
- 1: gif packet processing and texture uploads run parallel with rendering, the slowest decides the fps, dual-cores can still suffer by the spin loops, I'll check that when I compile pcsx2 on my notebook
- 2: two rendering threads, on a decent cpu packet processing is going to be slower now, this is probably going to increase fps the most on quads
- 3: small fps increase
- 4+: even smaller.

If you have a quad cpu with HT, 6 is the max, 1 + 1 is needed for pcsx2 and gsdx's basic tasks.

Also hacked palette writes to not force a read-back in hw mode (added in previous rev), it hit render targets in a surprising large number of games.

    @ 3 dont bother trying to reason with these trolls.most who complain about pcsx2 have ghetto pc's with celeron cpu's,a nvidia 5200,and 768 mb of ram,and they yell when they cant get full speed on GT4.

    This site is very amusing though.I have played the complate DMC series,castlevania LOI,the soparanos and many other games on pcsx2,@ full speed.

    Get over your antiques people and upgrade your ghetto boxes or stick with stella (atari 2600 emulator)

    i have 4ghz 6core 8gb ram and geforce gtx 580
    and every game runs at high fps. even on 6x native resolution so i wonder. what do you people do wrong? because you get so bad performance? do a virus search or something

    lol im running dual core 1.8ghz and games run at full speed as well..check out specs for inspiron 1525 and will see what i use ;)..another way for increasing performance is dual boot and rid of all services not needed like update, networking tcpip and all those other resource hogging things..you only need basics for an emulation os..my xp running idle uses a max of 185mb mem..7 is a resource and mem hog imo so went with xp :)
