I would like to thank all of you guys for taking your time to develop this amazing emulator. I've been following jpcsp for 2.5 years and that horrible excuse of an emulator can't even run my Naruto Ninja Impact at playable framerates STILL after all these years (and it
's not my pc, my GTX 670 and i5-3570k can get more damn frames in crysis 3 max at 1080p) [and that's with a tedious multi-hour tweaking process] while PPSSPP manages to get an easy 60 with much better visual quality and it's been publicly released for only half a year. Can't wait to see the upcoming upgrades.

Yep, so much progress in such a small amount of time. It really helps that we have a former(?) Dolphin dev and other talented devs working on it.
I can't lay too much blame on the creators of JPCSP, Java is just not suited for this kind of heavy duty emulation. Especially when performance is concerned, it's very hit or miss. Requiring so much tweaking and fiddling with techincal things no lay person should have to bother with, even with super rigs that crush modern games with ease. I tried with my rig and couldn't be bothered after a few attempts and hours and hours of trying to find optimal settings and heapsizes for different games lol and only getting a measly 20-25 FPS.
Soulcalibur especially really impressed me the most on PPSSPP. I could never get it to run faster than 25 FPS in game using JPCSP. With PPSSPP it's a solid 60 all the time with maxed settings.
C++ is where it's at. PCSX2 used it. Dolphin used it. It's about time we have a PSP emulator that used it.
