enabling VU extra+keep sign will give you a medium speed decrease in most games.
enabling full FPU/EE clamping will give you a small speed decrease in a few games.
However, if FPU clamping is at Full, yet VU clamping isn't at extra+keep sign, a couple of games may not work correctly.
FFX (and most games, I think) should be fine with Full FPU and Normal VU, though I don't know for sure.
So unless you want to enable both options and suffer the speed decrease, there isn't a blanket "for all games" option. That's why they're advanced.

As having recently played through this game i can confirm the bizarre crashing/graphics breaking bug at the rikku cutscene, in the al bhed's home 'yunie will die, you know!' I reverted to r548 and was able to get past this scene, as it doesn't break. I hope this will help.

I have met the same problem later also. At the end of Mt. Gagazet's cave, just after the fight with Santuary Keeper. Auron says "... [Braska] will defeat Sin, and then die." At this point the graphics goes bad and pcsx2 crashes either immediately or in a few seconds. Again, I was able to pass that part using an old beta. A memcard is available if you need it.
It is also curious that the game always crashes when somebody says that either father or daughter dies :-)
Let me take the opportunity to thank the developers of pcsx2 for the terrific work on this emulator, and in particular for the tremendous improvement in speed in the latest version. Even with the crashes, I continue playing with the latest version as I'm able to run it full speed without any hack, while there are some slowdowns in previous versions.

Encountered the same bug(s) at the very same spots tohdom mentioned, as of the most recent nightly build these remain unfixed

i confirm pieffe's discovery, but lucky me - pcsx2 only shaken a little but did not crash that time.
ps. the death is the main theme of FFX, i am sick of it! What a depressing plot! I hope FFX-2 will be different.

Don't know about 0.9.5 as I don't have it, but in 0.9.4 it works almost at the same speed as in latest svn build, with difference may be 2 fps. Battles/low-object-areas are always 60fps with minor slowdowns here and there.

Yes, Romano, you probably forgot tune some option like speedhack or something
