well for starters looking at ur video. ur not setup correctly ur running from ubunutu desktop which already offers a bottle neck on your performance and system resources. thats just the start of your issues. wrong display resolution wrong video adapter thats def fixable but never run or epect ur performance to resemble from an actual gaming front end optimized for gaming
The performance drop to less than 1fps can't be blamed on Ubuntu overhead. I have the suspicion it is something in the Vulkan driver that pushes a certain instruction to the CPU, instead of the GPU. I'm going to check if Ubuntu 24.10 has a newer Vulkan driver. If yes, I'll check again.
Possibly Ubuntu and Final fantasy 5 aren't the best choices for testing PS2 emulation. Maybe an Arch based distro and a lesser cutting edge games like "Bionicle" might be better ?
I don't think Ubuntu has much impact on the performance. The Pi 5 has a limited GPU, and it shows. You get better performance with a Rockchip RK3588 SBC. FFX isn't even the most demanding PS2 game.
