Update for those with annotations turned off: The framerate fluctuations in Metroid Prime during the intro, I did some tests locking Dolphin to 30fps, but that made the game run half-speed. But I did find that bumping frame skipping from 0 to 2 there is almost no drop in framerate. Of course the only problem with that is that it's now actually skipping frames, which while it may keep the fluctuations out during game play, it might not work so well for recording. Actually I'm not at all sure why that particular section is so heavy, because if I turn the frame limit to off, instead of auto, the game jacks up to 120fps... except for that one spot where it drops down to 30. Of course that also makes it run in double-speed so, you know... not ideal.
