Game Name?
Super Mario Sunshine
Game ID?
GMSP01
What's the problem? Describe what went wrong in few words.
The game's fps reduces by half in 5.0-rc-17 on both backends and by ~20% on 4.0-7345's OGL when subtitles appear if the ini option PerfQueriesEnable boolean value is true in video settings.
What did you expect to happen instead?
I expected the cinematic to stay full speed just like it does in the American version of the game
What steps will reproduce the problem?
[Don't assume we have ever played the game and know any level names. Be as
specific as possible.]
1.Change backend to OpenGL or Software if it's Direct3D
2.Open your PAL Super Mario Sunshine
3.Change Subtitles to ON if they are off
4.Wait for the intro's first dialogue and look at game speed drop

known issues and bugs, so don't report issues about them and test the
latest Dolphin version first.

Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which

Perfqueries is required for parts of the game. If it's extremely demanding, there isn't anything we can do about it. Sorry.
As a note, the older build that you suggested doesn't have perf queries, meaning a star doesn't work at all.
If you have further concerns or truly think that this is a bug, make the bug report centering around perf queries needing optimization or something. Even then, I don't know that there's anything we can do (I think we just use perfqueries as a feature of OpenGL in the OGL backend...)
