The primary solution is to get rid of the spinwait in the EEcore. In its wake we'll put the EEcore to sleep and have it wake up only once the MTGS ringbuffer has emptied to a satisfactory percentage. With the EEcore asleep, the GSdx thread(s) will have full reign over all the resources of the cpu; which will allow it to play "catch up" more efficiently than it can even in 0.9.6. This model will be an obvious win for both software rendering, and possibly DX11's multithreaded pipeline in the future. | The primary solution is to get rid of the spinwait in the EEcore.
