I've recently tried to play Heroes of Might and Magic IV under Wine, which has very poor performance and this message it printed out many, many times after the game is started:

assuming that this is the real problem for the poor performance you might squeeze quite some speed out if you get rid of the FIXMEs by redirecting the output to /dev/null. if there are really _lots_ of errors like this it takes quite some time to render them depending on your terminal.
at least this reminds me, that i wanted to test homm3 with wine as the native version no longer works with current linux/glibc/64-bit/godknowswhy.
