What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

Disabling Dolphin's framelimiter (i. e. fast-forwarding) no longer has any effect on emulation.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Launch any game
  2. Attempt to fast-forward using any in-emulator method (default hotkey is Tab)

It is important to make sure the bug hasn't already been fixed. Please tell us what the latest version you've verified the bug on.

Verified on current master (5.0-5207 at time of writing)

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

Yes, the bug presents in 5.0.

If the issue isn't present in the latest stable version, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)

[First broken version number here (if applicable)]

If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too. For more information on how to use the fifoplayer, please check here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=FifoPlayer

[Attach any fifologs if possible, write a description of fifologs and screenshots here to assist people unfamiliar with the game.]

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

Intel Core i7-4770k @4.4Ghz
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970
Windows 10 x64

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

[Anything else here]

Make sure that vsync isn't enabled, either in Dolphin or in the graphics driver.

Tried disabling vsync in both Dolphin and the NVIDIA Control Panel; the issue still persists.

I can't reproduce this issue.

Alright, here are what I hope are relevant config files. Please tell me if you see anything obvious that might be causing this.

You can write this off as invalid — it turns out I screwed up while implementing a workaround for an issue with mGBA (https://github.com/mgba-emu/mgba/issues/827), and it was being applied to Dolphin as well by mistake. Fixing the profile so it only applied to mGBA resolved the issue.
