Yeah, I know that memory isn't CPU but my point here is, if the emulator takes over memory, Home Menu wouldn't run at background, so then I think that this improves performance. Did anyone tested it out? By messing with RSF values, or something else?

I vaguely remember hearing that .cia homebrews are usually configured to run at the higher clock speeds anyway. No idea if that's true.

I think the difference would be negligible. There are always things running in the background but the home menu isn't actually doing much of anything when it's in the background. So unless the emulator actually needs the extra memory you probably wouldn't notice the difference.

This thread isn't about clock speed though.
