Hi Norbert
My usual setup is a Pi Zero with a small I2S soundard. I run mpd_oled with 21 spectrum bars and a framerate of 20Hz and the Pi Zero runs at around 90%-95% CPU with mpd_oled/cava accounting for around 22% CPU. If your DAC uses more CPU than mine then you could reduce the number of bars (-b) and the framerate (-f) and this will reduce the CPU usage of mpd_oled/cava.
