Er, my dual P100/128MB beats the snot out of that :-)
Are you sleeping for 1000ms after each client request? :-)
Are you running the latest patch?

Oh, I just realized: you said Tux 2.0. It's been so long since I used that - I 
couldn't even comment. IMHO patching to the latest 2.1 will yield great 
results, and staying with 2.0 may yield frustration and wasted time.

Also, like I see Alex just posted, I'd benchmark off the hd first.

Cheers.
