As I write this, I'm ripping (my own) CDs using 
abcde                 2.0.3-1
cdparanoia            3a9.8-4
libcdparanoia0        3a9.8-4
libcdparanoia0-dev    3a9.8-4
lame                  3.91

This is on a system just like yours: 1GHz Athlon-C, 768MB RAM,
and running mozilla 0.9.9, gnome 1.4 & evo 1.0.2.

Ripping a song just takes few minutes (but then I'm ripping classical
CDs with very long tracks).

What does "top" say?
