EDIT: Yeah, am aware of how much Map28 can lag, Prboom+ should work okay, even for a lower spec system.
I've experienced slowdowns with both PrBoom+ and GlBoom+ on my rig (C2D 2.4ghz, 8800GTX, 4go ram) when looking at the main area. Still playable, but I suspect if I'm getting slight slowdowns with that config, it might be bad for lower spec systems. Doom doesn't seem to like these extremely large and high open areas filled with monsters.
It gets better once a decent number of enemies are killed, so by taking the teleport leading to the imps/demons first, and clearing everything there before moving on to the main area, the slowdown isn't so bad. Once ~1500 enemies were killed, the map became smooth for me.
Still a fun BFG map, some would say too easy perhaps but that's how I like it.
