Spice uses precise calculations and full models for transistors,=20
capacitors, ... Therefore, I believe that Spice cannot be run in real-time =
on=20
slower computers (whatever that means). If you want to use spice backend to=
=20
run the simulation in real-time, maybe it would be smart to make some "leve=
l=20
of detail" setting for spice to be able to control the complexity (and=20
accuracy) of the spice model in use. Maybe even to be able to automatically=
=20
select the best "level of detail" for the given computer to achieve real-ti=
me=20
simulation (shouldn't be too hard to make).
