CPU performance didn't increase dramatically since the period around 2006 (core 2 duo generation). An application that doesn't run smoothly on old hardware like that will probably not run well on current hardware either. It's twice as true if the application should be usable on modern low-end laptops, that can really have terrible hardware, worse than a desktop from back then.
