I found no issues with Orca under Fusion really. It might have been a
tad slow, but honestly from what I recall, it wasn't bad at all and
nearly unnoticable. Unfortunately I lost my entire Ubuntu virtual
machine through some stupidity of my own so can't check it out again.
The worst part is I didn't realize I had lost it for a while; silly me.

Hi,
I tried using the Linux screenreader Orca in a virtual machine on a
Windows host and found the audio performance to be generally awful.
Many synths didn't work properly and those that did suffered enough
speech latency to make even short sessions frustrating. Windows
audio within a VM was much the same.
I've seen enough evidence of people using Windows within Fusion on
the Mac that the audio performance in the Windows guest is
responsive enough for daily use. Can anyone comment on experiences
of Linux speech performance under a Fusion VM? I always suspected
it was the Windows audio drivers being generally crap and preventing
proper time sharing that was my problem and would like to confirm it.
Thanks,
Garry
