Default DosBox runs games really slow?

I'm running the latest official build of DosBox (0.72) and it runs my games very slowly on my new machine which is weird since on my old machine, which was nearly 10 times slower in terms of hardware I used various 0.6x builds and all the games ran pretty fast. But now on my new machine I can't get any games to run decently and few side-scrolling such as Tyrian 2000 and Highway Hunter run very slowly, 15fps on average with fps dipping to 2-3fps sometimes.

I have tried using different renderer's such as opengl, ddraw, and similar with no positive effect.

My new machine specs are as follow:

CPU: Q6700 @ 3.7GHz
RAM: 4GB Corsair XMS
HD: 2x160GB in RAID0 + storage drives
GPU: single GTX 260
OS: Vista Home Premium 32bit

Any assistance would be appreciated.
