I don't know, but I don't use brushes that fast. And if I did, it
would be hard to control the brush (quickly responding or not).
That's just

Yes, loads of RAM is a good start.
And a decent graphics card (for rendering), yes?
No, graphics card aren't that important. Every normal modern card should do.
What other tips

If the generated brush outline is too complex, turning it off for that brush
only, or somehow simplify more complex brush outlines would be a better
solution than disabling it altogether in the program settings.
I have created deliberately a brush, which outline slows down Gimp when
drawing. Is it
I didn't even know you could turn off brush outlines. I took it as a
mini-challenge to see if I could work it out. BTW, to create some context
for my experience I have been using GIMP since 2003, and designing /

Let's not argue semantics here - you know what I mean :)
There should be a degree of the obvious when interacting with an
interface. In other words, it should, as far as possible, be obvious as what
to click on, in order to facilitate some action. This is far from the case
here.
Granted, there
I've tested working with outlines both on and
off, and there really isn't much of a difference (other than not
knowing my brush size), and I'm using an i7 quad core.

I run Photoshop on Windows (my old PC) and GIMP
on Ubuntu (my new PC). Photoshop is slower, in general, but its
real-time rendering (on an old P4 with minimal RAM) is still
faster than GIMP's real-time rendering on an i7 quad core when
doing identical painting

This speed problem is, for me, the single most frustrating aspect about
GIMP. (I can live with its inferior text tools, but real-time rendering
should be beefed up.)
As usual, easier said than done.

Not very fast at all. Use a brush with a soft
edge (hardness set quite low) and colour in parts of an A4
canvas. Standard colouring in motion (using a stylus), which GIMP
handles poorly.
