Yeah, I bought one of these. I noticed that it lagged unbearably, and ignored fast button presses. I'd really recommend against it.

I ended up using its case and one of the PSX ports to make a playstations to parallel port adapter (that works perfectly, for dancepads or otherwise) from these plans (http://www.emulatronia.com/reportajes/directpad/psxeng/intro.htm).
