Describe the Bug

Hey shadPS4 team,

Somewhere in the past week or so, a couple games, most notably Sakura Wars, went from running essentially full-speed to a snails pace, maybe 2-3 frames/sec. Thought it might be due to a recent update. Attaching my log to this in hopes that it helps.

Reproduction Steps

On any launch of game consistently.

Specify OS Version

Windows 11

CPU

Intel i9 13900k

GPU

RTX 5090

Amount of RAM in GB

64GB

Amount of VRAM in GB

32GB

Could you disable PS4 Pro mode?
Just go into your emulator settings and restore defaults, that should disable it for you.

Restored to defaults. Same issue unfortunately. That's interesting tho, I never knew I had that enabled.
