The problem is still present for me in Wine 3.12 and in Wine-Staging, too.

The game loads to the main menu in roughly 20 seconds. When entering a colony
or town and switching between locations (merchant, tavern) the game freezes
temporarily for 5-10 seconds. Entering a mini-game also has a noticeable pause.
Short, but frequent pauses are present while sailing on the map.

A Wine patched with the esync patchset gives a much smoother gameplay: the game
loads to the menu in less than 8 seconds, those frequent and annoying freezes
during gameplay are non-existent. For example mini-games are loaded almost
instantly.

FWIW, I have the following specs:
AMD Athlon 64 x2 5600+
8 GB RAM
Nvidia 730 GT, drivers 396.24.10
Kernel 4.17.6

This was tested with the GOG.com version of the game.
