Emulators on modern phones — where is it at now?
Been chewing on this for a while, so I figured I would ask here. Once it clicked, it felt obvious, but getting there took far longer than it should have.

The difference only becomes obvious once you look at the frame times rather than the average. If someone has a link to a proper explanation, I will take it.

Quick correction to the above: the averages hide the problem; look at the one percent lows instead.
Report back once you have tried it.

I went through this last month. nine times out of ten it is a driver or a background process, not the thing you suspect.

In my testing, that behaviour is intentional, even though it is poorly explained in-game.

Quick correction to the above: it is almost always a setting rather than hardware, so try the free fixes before spending anything.
