Thanks! But I get the impression that with Kokoro, a strong CPU still requires about two seconds to generate one sentence, which is too much of a delay for a TTS voice in an AAC app.

I'd rather accept a little compromise regarding the voice and intonation quality, as long as the TTS system doesn't frequently garble words. The AAC app is used on tablet PCs running from battery, so the lower the CPU usage and energy draw, the better.



Definitely give it a try yourself. It's very small and shouldn't be hard to test.
