Yes, throwing money at the problem will help.
Memory is important. I just upgraded my machine from 64Meg to 96 Meg, and the (Mpeg2Dec) framerate jumped from 17 to 25 fps. Sure, my machine is slow (P2/233), and I'm really waiting for an accelerated mpeg driver for my Rage128 (see GatosProject), but if you have only 64 Meg, add some more memory... JeremyErwin

For details on how to do this, check the LAMP FAQ located at http://pauillac.inria.fr/lamp/faq.html
This could dramatically boost your mpeg decoding performance:
Configure the MTRR registers (/proc/mtrr) so that your frame buffer is accessible in write-combining mode. If you have XFree 4.x, this is done automatically, but with XFree 3.x you have to do it yourself. Please someone include a description of how to do this. Once your MTRR registers are properly configured you should see something like this :

made listening to the soundtrack painfully full of pops and clicks.
Loading the ALSA driver for reduced my audio noise to ZERO.
ISA sound cards also can have impact on the performance, because ISA
DMA seems to need some processing power. Upgrading to a cheap PCI sound
card can give you a few fps and is cheaper than a new video card.
See [http://www.alsa-project.org/~goemon/] for a list of ALSA-supported
cards.
