|  Other emus too slow?
I was just going to ask you what speed your PC is, but you've already mentioned it. I'd be really interested in what percentage does YAPE achieve on your computer. Here at home, I have a Pentium 300Mhz, which I considered sooo old and lame (and I'm planning to buy a decent machine as soon as I can afford it - or this one dies  ) At work I have a 1.4Ghz. I'm surprised to hear that people are running even slower machines... Anyway, to the point: here YAPE does ~120%, which is "perfect". (On full throttle it's ~150%). I mean yours is just slightly slower than mine...
I use the following settings in YAPE:
-1541 emulation off
-USE GDI
-Small Border
-Screen/Maximum FPS: 50
For games like Mercenary (when the screen is not updated every frame), you can change the Maximum FPS to 25, this will give you ~20% boost, and the game runs the same.
Also, on my machine Minus4w is running at 50 FPS, which is once again perfect for playing games. Then there's WinEMU, which runs the vast majority of classics, and it runs at >150%!!
