1.4 freeze one second

I'll answer your PM here as there might be more confused people who read this:
- this forum to filter out spam(which was a huge problem in the past) requires manual acceptation of the first post from moderator.

Anyway, for a problem with fps dropping to 0, I would consider mostly 3 cases:
1. Texture scaling - it's very heavy, especially methods other than basic xBRZ even more with high scaling and while ppsspp does spread it over multiply frames, it could still cause some freezes on slower hardware.
2. Cheats that write a lot/very often, I think this might only affect very long cheats that messes up with JIT like some of those HP display cheats for MH games, it's very easy to edit such code adding a check to stop it from rewriting same things over again, but unfortunately people on PSP rarely cared about quality of their cheats and almost never included such checks. Disabling some of those cheats without using any special "OFF" or "[Disable]" code might still keep them running without rewriting the game every tick so that's one way to work around it, another would be to set refresh rate in cheat menu to a much higher number ie 1000 so it only refreshes them once per second.
3. Running games on PC from a basic storage HDD might cause such problem when they turn off to conserve power due to temporary inactivity, when game requests new data at later time a moment might pass before such hdd spin's up again effectively causing a short freeze. Using "cache full iso to ram" setting under system settings would help in such case - if you have enough ram, otherwise moving it to less power saving HDD, SSD or a pendrive would also help.
