What CPU do you have, btw? I'm assuming you have plenty of RAM (2 to 4 GB).
Things to try:
- use a newer wine (latest is wine-1.3.6 )
- try 'winetricks glsl-disable' and see if that helps a bit
- play with game settings - sometimes
- get a faster graphics card; the gt240 is decent and relatively cheap
It's a hard problem. People complain about the framerate even on Windows, and then Wine has its own penalty (50% or so, judging from other games). See http://wiki.winehq.org/Performance for some general notes on the subject.
AMD 9850 Black Edition and 4GB of DDR2 RAM
