Description

Game Name?
Tested: Rayman 3 and Rayman Arena, may effect other games

GRHE41 for Rayman 3, GRYE41 for Rayman Arena

MD5 Hash? (right click the game in the game list, properties, info tab, MD5 Hash: Compute)
40386ae7cb46600bf05e8980c0773ffc for Rayman 3
4e7b4dd0444ebfeb7ec2ab253116d437 for Rayman Arena

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.
Any builds after and including 4.0-8919 no longer emulate disc load times accurately, at least on the two games I have tested. In both cases after build 4.0-8919 the load times decreased by around 2 seconds, equivalent to if "Speed up Disc Transfer Rate" were checked. I have verified using recordings from a Wii (albeit not my own, but from someone I trust) that the previous, longer load times were accurate.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Time a loading screen on either Rayman 3 or Rayman Arena (other games may be affected, I do not currently have the resources to test that) on both 4.0-8919 and 4.0-8916. On build 4.0-8916, the load times should be around 2 seconds longer.

Which versions of Dolphin did you test on? Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which versions of Dolphin used to work?

4.0-8919 - FAILURE
<=4.0-8916 - SUCCESS

What are your PC specifications?
Intel 4690, Nvidia GTX 970, Windows 10 x64, Samsung 850 Evo (on which the game is stored)
