Do i need a CPU upgrade (i have a 466Mhz G4)?
Or shall i wait for a new version of UAE with improved speed?
Yup, 466 MHz is too slow for E-UAE (you can give
UAE4All a try, I remember it could more or less reach the speed of an A500 on my Efika - and it comes with a GUI (of some kind)).
As for slowness of UAE - I really doubt porting newer versions will end up in speeding it up - rather the opposite. What we
really need is a PPC-JIT for UAE. There's a bounty going on
here (it's primary target is OS4.1, but the code itself would be opensourced, so we could as well use it). But - as you can see - this bounty is still unassigned (that's not an easy task so it can be very difficult to find a programmer willing to do this - at least for this money).
