I've found that for CPU inference the PyTorch-based (non-quantized) version of Pocket TTS actually performs (both speed and quality-wise) better than the ONNX version, even after fiddling with all of the knobs that ONNX provides.

i found the exact opposite, the pytorch version on the cpu barely does over 2 times realtime while i can get the onnx int8 version to reach 5x.

I'm using exactly this TTS engine for my intercom door system I built. The quality of the TTS is very good.

kokoro is surprisingly great at nuance but it's tough to improve that last ~2% or so. kokoro + rvc is really great too; i use that for ELEMENT47, the LLM-centric comedy podcast i do that i wish more people would listen to. (e47.net , feel free to subscribe!)

These two can probably do it much faster on their iGPUs.
