It might be an idea to look into it, start ie or what ever your using with debug flags and see whats happening. there might be an error which doesn't kill wine but slows it down in an important way.

Today I saw one that says "I have discovered a way to get Shockwave working under Linux.
Funny, I did the same thing at one point. Worked well but was slow.
I ended up using Shockwave in a VMware session because it was just infinitely faster than using Shockwave by means of Wine.
I think I was playing the game at www.isketch.net. It was unplayable with Wine, but worked fine (= fast) in VMware. Wonder why.
