Description

Whilst openai/whisper may get faster in the future, it seems https://github.com/guillaumekln/faster-whisper/ says their "implementation is up to 4 times faster than openai/whisper for the same accuracy while using less memory". And their version did seem to be quite a lot faster when I tried it.

Perhaps it would be possible to make this project run with ctranslate2 the same way https://github.com/guillaumekln/faster-whisper has done it. Having the program process faster has obvious benefits for live translation which I probably don't need to explain.

I have no idea how to add it in myself
