I have found that a lot of the audio editing software you can get away with quite low specs. I record my podcasts on a 8 year old laptop running Windows XP. It rarely connects to the internet and I record to a thumb drive that is backed up so there is nothing to lose on it. In this particular case something similar might be the best option. For pod-casting anything over 2 or 3 ms in my headphones throws me off my game.

- cmdrfred 11y agoI stand corrected.
- jsolson 11y agoVirtual CPUs with VTx can be made to run at essentially native speed for most workloads on most fairly modern CPUs. Memory performance can be subpar, although there's public documentation on techniques that can improve that: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM%20-%20Using%20Hugepages https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM%20-%20Using%20Hugepage... I/O performance is a whole other story, dependent on many workload and hypervisor specific factors.
