-sndpci works on this PC, too (Intel HDA).

I never notice any significant slowdown, but I'm not that picky. I do know that higher resolutions tend to be slower than lower. So if you want fastest speed, perhaps it's best to stick to low res (320x200).

Laggy menus have indeed "sometimes" occurred for me, but I just ignored it. That isn't core gameplay, so it's not big deal (to me).

I don't often use the mouse, only keyboard. Also, not sure what "binging" means. Perhaps you mean binding?
