SoW seems to work fine on every server Ive tried, but SoWs speed also scales with the level of the caster, so a lowby sow is a lot slower than a high levels SoW.

This is normal.

i play on tallen vallen my toons are 56 and 54 and even in wolf form doods with sow pass me up. I was told there was somewhre you can go to spec your comp to optimize EQ. Someoone in my guild said the same thing use to happen to him until he downloaded eqwin. I downloaded eqwin but it still happens

Sticky somewhere but if you are using multiple core cpu's there can be issues with speed. Generally I heard them going faster then normal but I guess slow is possible. It involves you devoting only 1 single processor to the eq client. It should be in right click menu on eq.exe in your task manager if you using a newer windows.

Otherwise I have also noticed that certain zones speed different at least for me on PEQ. I don't know if it is set up so spells in PoK are max level but my toons always travel faster with a Sow there then anywhere else. Then again I am running a quad core, never devoted to 1 cpu because I haven't really noticed any issues that are too serious personally.

Dual/Quad Core CPU fixes

Trevius' post on the subject in General Support forum.
