How do you find out what your latency weighs in at?
I know the old Cubase VST32 used to have a speed result in the device setup, but nothing I've seen lately seems to have similar. How can I make it shorter anyway? I'm triggering drums. (Once your samples are on a ext. 7200rpm drive and buffers are lowest etc, what else can you do; Does more RAM make it faster?)

Given you have only 512 MB of RAM, to max out would be a good idea, for now, your OS X is straining with not enough RAM for himself. You'll see overall speed getting better with 1GB and more (at least 1.5 or 2 GB will give plenty of room for everyone and the less swap disk as possible for virtual memory. Then, your CPU will be able to care a bit more with your jobs on hand.
Remember that the lower the buffer, the highest CPU strain you make, so ease its life
