But if it's just a CPU process [a software filter/processor], then vmWare won't be getting in the way really - and today's boxen are well over 2GHz. But then again, I just realised... how would those hosts communicate with the linux-side components. I doubt VST has a "network transport" mode, alas. Alas, I didn't think of that minor detail. When in doubt, seek Quality. =MB= -- A focus on Quality.
