Yes I do, retested pegging all CPU's at max frequecy and the menus still run at
warp speed but the gameplay was now at normal speed.  Pegging the CPU's at
auything less than max frequency caused the gameplay to run slow (menus
unaffected).  The game doesn't run consistently under the same conditions
though, I was able to get one lucky time with the menus and everything ran at
the right speed.  I closed down the game and restarted under the same condition
and everything was running too fast, and this is at the constant max CPU
frequency!
I'll test this game in a native windows to try and isolate the issues of
running the game in wine under linux.
