Hi Anouk,
I can confirm sluggishness on my macbook air late 2010 with 4 GB RAM in OS

may be too old for this new operating system.

It's a problem here as well. Even the compact voices can be slow to respond.

I've seen this as well, for a few years. I report it every beta cycle, but it

but I find them more sluggish then alex. Also the command to change speech
parameters (thansk for that info John) is really sluggish as well.
With sluggish i dont mean just needing a higher rate to get at the seem speed

The voices on the iphone are provided by Nuance. That engine is called
nuance vocalizer. Those voices are available for windows desktops and
that engine is called nuance realspeak. I actually wish these voices

Furthermore, the high quality voices are so language specific that
