Well, I tried the *exactly same* location on both Zsnes and Snes9x, during the battle against that thief leader in the beginning, and they ran A LOT faster on the Zsnes.
At that point in the game, I haven't got a real chance to level up, nor use any Abilities or Specialities or anything like that whatsoever.

So yeah, it must be the emulator.
