Exactly. Really, with the strange design, if anything its actually quite amazing they got it to work as well as it did. As Quadraman said, its basically an LC630 with a PowerPC upgrade built in. In a nutshell, what they did was quite similar to taking a Chevy LS1 block, and putting it in an old Datsun - not impossible, but just difficult, and quirky.As the other answers suggest, the question isn't "Why doesn't it work well?" Rather, it's "Why does it ever work?" Just be happy that you're able to run iTunes and play MP3s on that mac at all.
For best performance, turn off VM, disable unnecessary extensions, and otherwise turn off anything that steals CPU cycles. Beyond that, you've done all that can be done with a stock model. The performance that you get is what you get.
