There has been a steady drop in the CPU utilization of the Diamond Monster Sound MX300 over several driver releases.
If you have an MX300, bring up the MX300 control panel.
Click on the MIDI tab. See how it's set for 320 voices? Change that to 64 voices. The Vortex2 audio accelerator on the MX300 only supports 64 hardware voices - the other 256 are software only. In reality, it's the rare game that supports MIDI these days. However, if some of those software voices ever kick in, it's a performance hit.
