Thanks for the replys!
Tafoid, Its ok, developers do what they think most appropriate.

But in my little opinion, I think, the cheat mode main use is for cheat the games and not for develop only tool.
I don't like flooders/trollers/etc too, but they will ask with, and without saving the overclocking sliders. :/ Hehehe!!
When I activate the cheat mode, I assume it can affect game performance and may be affect emulation. Is obviously.

I think is positive include in the *.cfg games the sliders configs with cheat flag activate for users who are not developers. Only looking skip the slowdowns presents in the original PCB. Modifyng the sources every time i want overclock a game is a time eater for a person only like play arcade games.

It is possible and relatively easy for advanced mame user/tweaker to make a patch for mame, that instead of changing the speed of a CPU, save cheat menu values​​ in the cfg file of a game? Or is a mind blowing in the mame code?
Apply that patch compile it, and everybody happy

Thanks!

Also, I want to thank all the mameteam for your work to preserve arcade games live
