Description
Here Lubuntu 24.04.3 kernel 6.14.
RetroArch 1.22.2 2c16033 2027-07-01
In setting video output the "estimated screen refresh rate" is showing a wrong value monitor screen Hz.
Here the monitor use 60 Hz.
When "estimated screen refresh rate" reach 2048 sample is showed a value Hz below of 21 for screen Hz.
Have some cores if disabling vertical sync does a speed up above of 300 % speed even not enabling fast forward.
That issue not happen in Retroarch 1.21.
Only reporting.
I have uploaded a log.
Have a nice week.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the attached log.zip and the video output settings involved in the estimated screen refresh rate on RetroArch 1.22.2 under Linux Lubuntu 24.04.3 with X11. Compare the reported value and core speed behavior with RetroArch 1.21; done means the 60 Hz monitor is estimated correctly and disabling vertical sync does not cause the reported speed increase.
