There's a point at which the cycles becomes too much to keep up with and the game starts playing crummy again. My WinXP machine will run most old games pretty smoothly at 12000 to 15000 cycles, with a game that doesn't follow the rules and demands 20000 instead every once in a while. Bring DOSBox to 10000 or so and start the game, then keep increasing the cycles until the music starts acting up. Then bring it back down and remember where the limit is.
Strangely, DOSBox decreases cycles MUCH faster than it increases them.
And one of the MP3s for Crusader 1 is broken. Darn.

the rate of both is configurable in the configfile of dosbox.
