You should see significant gains when an actual OS X version is released and properly optimized.

We're running the game through bootcamp (although this probably isn't the proper lingo. bootcamp just partitions the drive). Only Windows is loaded. We're not using Parallels or anything to run Windows from within OS X. My problem was that the fans were not kicking in on windows. The heat wasn't dispelled properly and so the CPU/GPU (not sure which) would be throttled. I've since downloaded a 3rd party fan controller and the game works fine now. This might be LeonBlade's problem. Do you remember hearing the fans kicking in?
