Experimental FIFO thread. Speeds up the emulator by moving FIFO to its own thread. This will work best with quad cores, though there is a noticeable improvement on my dual core.

Enable the thread by adding this line to the video plugin ini files, "User\Config\gfx_dx9.ini" and "User\Config\gfx_opengl.ini":

UseFIFOThread = True

The line should be added under the UseXFB line.

To disable the FIFO thread, use this line:

UseFIFOThread = False

If the line is not in the ini file, the default is disabled (i.e. False).

The FIFO thread causes an error when the OpenGL plugin is used.  The D3D plugin works.

Only top left quarter of the screen can be seen when rendering to main window.  The entire screen can be viewed when running in a window.
