Hi, there is one emulator with ok time-management: Pose 30a2 with around 1000 nps Pose 31 is the newest one. With switching off all logging and debugging options it runs with normal palm speed but time-management is not ok! I have this effect also on version 30a8 and this affects PalmGenius too (clock runs 10 times too fast)!
