What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

When I disable store efb copies to texture only, the game slows down

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

No 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)

Macbook pro 13 inch 2015
Macos 10.13.5

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

Yes, EFB copies to RAM is slower. That's just how it is.

You've said that this problem doesn't happen in 5.0. Do you mean that EFB copies to RAM doesn't slow down the emulation at all, or that EFB copies to RAM slows down emulation less than in the latest development build?

...alright, I guess there aren't any signs to this actually being a performance regression then.

If you're interested in having EFB copies to texture work again for this game, please keep track of issue 10966 instead of creating a new issue report.
