The framerates do seem a bit low to me, but box64 is emulating a 64-bit cpu on an arm cpu, right? So a very complex instruction set working on a risc chip. That’s quite the feat… and the frametimes look pretty stable. Looking forward to see this keep developing into the future!

Frame rates are low because the 128 cores are individually fairly weak and video games are famously poorly threaded
