Hmm, always after 30 secons you say...
This looks like a setting in the energy saver control panel.
I don't have that option on my dual but on my iMac it was there.
You should try this: once POV start to render slow, simply move the
mouse a little bit.
If rendering speeds up again, you should go an take a look at the energy
savings panel.
I don't now the correct name but look for something to slow down the
cpu.
