Mid-2015 15 in Macbook Pro, 16 gb Ram, 2.2 ghz (with turbo boost to 3.4 ghz) quad core intel I7, and Intel iris pro graphics card. I've read recently that Ishiiruka now has ubershaders as well, and well, it performed better for me. The Display settings on my mac show the external monitor as only being 13.9. I also have an external monitor: Samsung SyncMaster 920 NW (19'). I have a MacBook Pro (13', Early 2015) running macOS Sierra v10.12.5 with an Intel Iris Graphics 6100 1536 MB graphics card. Yes, I've heard that Dolphin 5.0 has circumvented the necessity of Ishiiruka because of ubershaders. Intel Iris Graphics 6100 1536 MB is not recognizing external monitor correctly. Yes, I did try to optimize my settings by reading posts and such. Tips: Under Graphics on the General tab, change your Backend setting from OpenGL to Direct3D11 or Direct3D9.

This is certainly not extensive testing and likely not representative of how all games would perform, but some definitive evidence for using windows on your Mac (if you can) and even using the latest Dolphin or Ishiiruka build, I would argue. I ended up testing the latest Dolphin build too and it performed almost performed as well as Ishiiruka, with a only a few minor FPS drops to 28-29. No stuttering in sound, no drop in FPS in Delfino Plaza and a rock solid 30 FPS in level 1 Hotel Delfino. When I tried the latest build of Ishiiruka, man did it kick it up a notch. Unfortunately, it still dropped to 20 FPS with all the mini bosses on screen in level 1 Hotel Delfino, but it certainly held out longer. I saw an immediate improvement in sound with no stuttering in Delfino Plaza, and only a rare drop from 30 to 27 FPS. After partitioning using boot camp (Windows 8.1 Pro), I ran the stable build of Dolphin. On MacOS (High Sierra), I always had stuttering sound no matter where I went, would experience occasional FPS dips from 30 to 25 in Delfino Plaza, and an atrocious dip to 20 FPS on level 1 Hotel Delfino when all the mini bosses were on screen, and even a dip to 27 FPS with just the big boss. I tested this all out on Super Mario Sunshine using the Delfino Plaza (the large hub world) and the first level of Hotel Delfino (the boss on that level breaks numerous mini bosses, so it's a good test on performance). I'm not a tech guy, so here's what I did. I also found an even greater performance boost using the latest Dolphin and Ishiiruka builds. I recently caved and partitioned my Mac using Boot Camp to see if performance on the stable 5.0 build would increase, and it definitely did. For us Mac Dolphin user, our computers usually don't have great specs and high end games or emulation can either be really taxing or impossible (see my specs at the bottom of the post).
