Reduce the amount of cycles in DOSBox by pressing CTRL+F11 until you've reached your desired performance level.

Highly recommend using Chocolate Doom over DOSBox. It's still vanilla, but made to run on it's own without emulation.

You can still play Doom pretty much like it was back in the early 90s using a sourceport. I use Z-Doom on a laptop and I have things like particles and decals turned off, and the secret revealed message disabled and a few other settings to make it closer to the original experience.

PRBoom+ is also good. It isn't 100% true to the constraints of vanilla, but it still feels very much like the vanilla game. It has higher resolution support and proper mouse acceleration, among other things. (Though much of it can be tweaked in compatibility settings.) It's the kind of source port that's typically known as limit-removing.
