I have to say that I had the same experience on Windows. I’ve trialled The Brain multiple times over the years on different Windows machines, and I never managed to get it run properly, it was just unusuably slow.

Clearly there have been many users of The Brain here who have used it successfully over time, so I’m wondering what the secret is. Does one need to have the very latest top specs to be able to run The Brain?
