My snap reaction: add a second modem, if you have the phone line.

Secondly: a P133 is *awful* slow at running GhostScript.

Where the bottleneck *is* can be determined by watching how fast faxes
get *into* the queue when you send them.  If the queue backs up, then
the problem is lack of modems.  If the system keeps the queue
relatively empty, it's the CPU.

It's probably the modems.
