I posted awhile back that merely enabling HLSL cut my games's FPS in half. I've discovered that checking "Switch Resolutions to Fit" enabled me to run HLSL @ 100%. Just an FYI for others that might have the same issue  Tried a few different profiles posted on this board and no slow downs so far.
Another thing I noticed....and I'm almost afraid to post this cause it might get "fixed" is that on my locked 60Hz LCD, enabling HLSL allows me to play games like Ms.Pacman (60.61Hz) @ 100% frame rate without the need of enabling the "Refresh speed" option. Whether or not this is some trickery on the part of HLSL is unknown.
Update: HLSL had nothing to do with not having to use refreshspeed. Disabling it yields the same results.

Interesting, it might have something to do with the NTSC simulation doing its job. Do you have " yiq_enable" option enabled in HLSL? Try running MS.Pacman without it and see if it still runs @ 100% or 99% as it should on your 60Hz LCD. If you have yiq disabled and still achieving this effect then I find it strange and it is indeed a good side effect for the LCD users until this "bug" is fixed Cheers

yiq_enable was already off. Enabling it had no impact on performance/frame rate.
