All snark aside, yep, you will. Emulating discrete analog components accurately takes a lot of CPU power. What do you want the developers to do? Lie to you? Wave magic wands to make demanding emulation tasks magically faster? If anything, you're going to see more of this in the future, as many arcade boards had analog filtering on the sound chip output that is currently not emulated. We're real sorry about the speed on your old system, but the option is either to not be accurate or to not run quickly on it. Them's the breaks.
