VirtualPC is not suited for processor-intensive, professional-level tasks -- not even on the fastest G5 processors. Video editing, audio editing, heavy image editing and gaming are all things that are best run natively, not under emulation.

You can try turning off all eye candy in Windows, like disabling fading menus and performance-type things like that for a negligible boost, but other than that, VirtualPC runs like VirtualPC does.
