Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.
Yes, 5.0-8199 (77f6e50493c0433391a4da1815b09d85d1a36247)
Is the issue present in the latest stable version?
No, but game runs at 5 FPS anyways
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.)
5.0-6235 - broken
5.0-5636 - broken
5.0-4994 - broken but less broken?
5.0-4298 - I can't tell because performance is already 2 FPS
What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)
- MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014)
- 2.6 GHz Intel Core i5
- 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
- Intel Iris 1536 MB
- macOS Mojave 10.14 Beta (18A314h) = Developer Preview 2
Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)
When I disconnect all controllers, focused performance is more like 6 FPS instead of 0 FPS.

Can you please see if this PR affects your issue in any way?

The linked version does not appear to have this performance issue on macOS Mojave 10.14.3 on a 2018 MacBook Pro, using the Vulkan renderer.

Thanks, do you know if latest master (https://dolphin-emu.org/download/) still presents the issue?

- Status changed from New to Fixed
Unable to reproduce on latest dev build, issue report made on a (now) really old beta version of macOS, and no response from user. Assuming fixed.
