I never claimed that it was, I just pointed out that OP's M5 performs about the same as my even older mobile i5 chip. This isn't a MacBook air, it's a MacBookTM with a core m processor, it's like a 5 watt chip, it's hot garbage. And dolphin itself has been around long before any of the core-I processesors even existed. It is by no means a super demanding program.
It's rated as about equivalent to a ten year old i5.Īnd a 10 year old i5 will run dolphin just fine.
