I'm running dynamips without too much trouble on a circa 2004 IBM
ThinkPad T42p (2.0GHz single core, 1GB RAM).
Admittedly I'm not pushing it hard, usually only having 4-5 images
running at once, using a single hypervisor.
You obviously need to get the idlepc/idlemax stuff under control.
Otherwise, it'll eat all system resources in sight.
Oh yeah, I run Linux. dynamips seems much happier on Linux.

cheers,
Dale
