RPCS3 becomes more slower with more data you have

[Jonathan44062]

Quick summary

Lately, I've been experiencing a problem with the emulator itself, which now takes longer to open and close, between 20-30 seconds, it's no longer instantaneous. At first I thought it was because a lot of games and data installed, but no, it turns out that when I did a fresh installation of the emulator in a new folder, transferring my config files, trophies, saved files, patches, without opening a single game, the problem persists.

I’ve noticed the same thing too over the last month or two.
If you open the app, and close it soon after and then try and reopen it, it doesn’t open no matter how many times you click on it.

For me it started somewhere around v0.0.38-18427, and I’m still experiencing the windows right click menu popping up every single time when I open the app when I’ve added it to my windows start menu. This only started to happen recently with RPCS3 and no other app does it, or has done it in the past. Before this the app was super stable for years and never gave me any issues, but now it seems like it’s a bit of a mess.
I already opened a ticket about it, but doubt anything will be done at this stage.
