Linux freezes - Fix (at least for me) - micush - 12-04-2020

I'm running RPCS3 on Linux (Elementary OS Hera).

RPCS3 would hang constantly in-game to the point to where it was just about unusable. 

I'm running the Vulcan renderer with a Quadro T1000 card and the 455 drivers.

From make-linux-fast-again(dot)com I applied the specified boot string. 

RPCS3 is now much more stable for me.

Yes, I now what the security implications are. Yes, I know it **could** be **bad** if I get hacked due to all the Spectre/Meltdown/flavor-of-the-week Intel security bugs in their silicon. No, I'm not advocating you do this to your linux installation.

However, I also know that what I thought was an RPCS3 issue or an NVIDIA driver issue ended up being a linux kernel issue because of all the applied mitigation workarounds.

Applying the specified boot parameters fixed my RPCS3 hanging issues and gave me a pretty decent speed boost to boot. YMMV.
