How do you know that?

Tried both of them and the RSX debugger details the insufficiency; in short, the emulator is not ready yet (trust me, I have done this before).

You've tested GTA V on PS3 emulators before? How did that go?

I tested them both on RPCS3.

nah, it's asmjit
but a bad choice if you want my opinion.

Well fuck. I read it wrong the first time he told me that.
Anyway, we may eventually replace it by Xbyak, at least that's whay DH and Nekotekina have in mind.
yes it's I who suggested for them to use xbyak instead :p

Maybe I'm last to see this (as a developer and follower of this stuff), but I never realized PS3 had an ARM microprocessor.
I know 4 does, but never knew 3 did.

It doesn't, the PPU uses PPC, and the SPU uses a custom ISA.

Interesting. Only that article seems to say anything about ARM, but none of the sources do, and I cannot find anything else on the Internet talking about any PS3 ARM chip, so that's interesting. Just sayin'.
