Emulator

Noticed that issue is still here in current master:
In certain moments of the game framerate drops to 40-45, but if press TAB it goes above 80-90 and than back to 40-45
Enablig Virtual XFB helps to get normal 60 framelimit with nice and smooth gameplay
i believe it should be added to ini file

I've tried all the combinations of XFB, virtual+real, and opengl,dx11 and dx12 and the games performance was still terrible.

I've got a evga980 ti classiifed, and 5930k @ 4.3ghz

4.8ghz, not 4.3

Is there any guide on profiling dolphin to see whats taking the most time during these chunks of lag?

We found out the issue.

From Stenzek: "so it's doing 8 texture cache lookups per draw, and looking at my naive profile results that's where it's spending most of its time."

Definitely a valid issue, the only solution is reworking how the texture cache works, or implementing faulting.
