I changed my 10+ year old Athlon XP (3000+) system from Windows XP to Linux Mint 17.1. I want to use WINE to play Artermis Bridge Simulator.
My Athlon XP system used to be able to run an Artemis client. I've installed the game and can run the client on the new Linux environment using WINE (with no configuration changes). My only concern now is whether Linux WINE will run this application fast enough on my hardware.
Does anyone have a "rule of thumb" penalty that running Windows applications in WINE incur? A 20% penalty might be OK, while 40% probably wouldn't.
Since posting my message I've done more research on my own. I'll post what I've found as an answer but I very much appreciate other's thoughts too.

There is no direct rule of thumb for all games. Some run brilliantly without any configuration at all, some run reasonably well and some won't run at all.
Theres far too many variables to give a specific answer.

Answer 2
I have succeeded in installing and running the client software but haven't had a chance to hook up to a server and testing the fps and lagginess of the simulator.
Artemis is rated "Platinum"^1 on WINE. Incidentally, you can search for other games at this site to determine their likelihood of working on WINE.
1 Platinum means it will install and run with little or no configuration changes. No known showstopper issues.
I can post a follow-up with performance evaluation after my game next weekend.
