Dont know for the broken sword question but for curse theres not much slow down at all the biggest slowdown you will get is the cannon scen on lechucks ship at the start of the game!
Well... the latest builds from svn play the game at decent speed, with little or no slowdown. BUT they seems to suffer from memory leaking problems: aftern 20 minutes of playing you'll get an "out of memory allocating etc etc" error.

Please report this to the bug tracker, as it sounds like a rather release critical issue.
