I generally transfer my tracks to my PC, then mix in the box. At this point, I'm running a 3GHz P4 with a RAID pair of SATA drives. It's not impossible for me to overload it, but it takes a lot to do so. I've got a show on my PC right now that is a full 24 tracks with 4 submixes and a lot of plugins. That one pushes the machine pretty darn hard. But for the most part, it's fast enough.
In fact, it's sitting here next to me right now rendering a mix of a show that has only 12 tracks. The show is about 1:45 in length, and it will take about half that to render the complete stereo mix.
