Apply for community grant: Personal project (cpu-upgrade)

Greetings!

xVASynth is a voice actor oriented TTS that is mostly used by modders of The Elder Scrolls series of games. With a recent surge of interest due the Mantella mod. Mantella combines STT, LLMs and TTS services in order to speak with NPCs and even have them speak with each other.

Overall, the TTS is able to synthesize text in a few seconds even on the free tier 2-core CPU machine. I am very grateful that you offer that, ๐Ÿ‘ผ. Though at some point it seems to hit a threading bottleneck. I haven't seen any tools that HF offers in order to judge the culprit. The grant would allow even faster synthesis, stability and raise awareness of the TTS.

Resources needed - CPU-Upgrade

While the TTS can support CUDA, GPU acceleration is not currently necessary.
