That's probably not far from what I get in Qemu on my 867 MHz PPC G4...

Do you know if you have hardware OpenGL rendering with that card?

That's a bit on the low side. Pipmak currently reserves 20 MB for 
caching images (you could change that value, though, if you compile from 
source), and that isn't of much use if it ends up being done on the hard 
drive. However, I just tried it with 32 MB in Qemu (on Windows 98), and 
it went remarkably well - everything in the demo worked. Node loading 
took around 20 seconds, and with interpolation disabled (which also 
seems to disable perspective correction - looks freaky), I got about 1-2 
FPS in 640x480 - and that's with software rendering.

Yes, please do - I'm interested!
