Any Emulator + TOTK = slowdown after 10 minutes (details inside)

Hello there!

I'm getting pretty decent FPS and performance with either Eden or Citron + TOTK.

60 FPS in the wild, around 45 in Lookout Landing. Very happy...

... but, and here's the problem, this last around 10 minutes. After that, the FPS drops to 25 or even lower, the game feels "floaty" for lack of better words (feels like the game is running in slow-mo). This happens with whatever settings I tried to far.

SPECS

7800X3D - 4070 Ti Super (16GB VRAM) - 32GB RAM - emu/game is on a NVMe SSD

  

From what I've found, I know it's a VRAM problem, but I have no idea how to fix the problem.

I tried Eden, Citron, both in PGO/MSVC/Official flavors

NX Optimizer is in there, Medium settings. Using NX version 3.2.0, Legacy and Game "TOTK 2.7.1" from the drop-down.

Latest FW and Keys - game version 1.2.1

Tried a multitude of settings, but I end up with the same result every single time.

Set to 8GB VRAM, but also tried 4GB - didn't change a single thing.

Tried BC3 and BC1, VRAM Agressive or Conservative - same result.

The only way to "fix" the problem, is to save, close, and launch again. But doing this every 10 minutes is annoying, to say the least.

I remember playing TOTK on Yuzu a few years back on an old computer with an Intel 8700k + 1080ti and I never had this problem.

Any idea how to fix this?
