Game has super big slowdowns with more effects on the screen (way worse than stock a500)
I think it is an A530 / WHDLOAD combo issue. As many games suffer.
If somebody could take a look why this might be happening that would be awesome. For now GVP A530 is a broken piece of hardware with WHDLOAD.

Due to lack of A530 hardware, I can't do anything here and hence unassign this ticket, so someone else can take over.

After discussion on the EAB forum, it seems this is due to A530 slowing down (to less than half speed) access to chip memory compared to stock A500, which makes this not a WHDLoad problem. I'm therefore closing this.
