In game, bring up the on-screen display (default configured key is [ ` ] (1 left the top row [ 1 ] key).
First thing you should see if volume.
Use up and down to cycle thru the other options, You should see for example "Overclock CPU0" set to 100%. Use the right arrow to increase the percentage effectively overclocking of the CPU in mame. Helps to do the same with other CPU chips that exist.
Interestingly, I am using mame .67. These options exist in the main mame distribution. Testing it on Mame32Plus, only the sound based chips show for the exact same games I tested??? Maybe mame32plus is doing it by default? Maybe not..... anyone know?
Cave:
I'm sure cheats have to be enabled for overclocking, also holding down the shift key to adjust all cpu's at once. Does anyone know how to keep these settings ?

This specific slowdown is actually covered in the mame faq. How could you miss it?
