Depends on the circumstances?  I know of several installations
that run emulators of hardware that is no longer available, and
the applications run faster than on the hardware for which they
were written.  (and no application migration costs, to boot)

Now if you had said software SIMULATION is always slower than
hardware, I might have agreed.
