I woulndt like to forgo Rub...but I can live with standard SH3 graphic.

RUb just doesn't add many graphics at all that would slow down the game. RUb isn't a graphics-heavy mod anyway, and one thing I always try to do when I'm adding graphical updates to mods is to improve the graphics while keeping the exact same resolution as the standard game. I am always very attentive to the needs of those who are running on lower-end computers, so I try to do everything as efficiently and as cleanly as possible using the smallest files possible to do the job. There may be one or two graphics files that are in a bigger format than normal, but the vast majority are the exact same size as those of the standard game.

I think you'll probably find that the slowdowns are caused by the other mods you have installed. Sound files are notorious for causing crashes in this game. I would uninstall the sound mods first and see if that fixes the problem.
