[9] I use Gig Performer (among others) with a 2012 Lenovo PC 8GB RAM i5-3320M and I can load about 15 plugins playing simultaneously without any CPU load problem and glitches at 44,1kHz/128 samples. But to get this result, my computer is dedicated only to music and optimized thanks to this 92 pages guide whose recommendations I carefully followed @ VI-Control → LINK

[10] Wie gesagt ist die Konfiguration des PCs nicht unerheblich. Hatte es im Forum hier schon mal erwähnt, es gibt für Windows-PCs eine super Anleitung mit viel Praxiswissen. Sucht einfach mal nach “The Ultimate Guide to Optimize your Windows PC for the Stage”. lx2 @ Steinberg → LINK

In Gig Performer community forums, there is a free book explaining step by step how to configure your OS to maximize performance solely for this purpose. It disables/deletes any and all apps/files not needed and changes settings to speed the processing needed. Obviously this is for a dedicated laptop used only in your ‘studio’ as it were. It works as I was unable to run little more than half of what i do now.
