Comment (by m-kiewitz):

 Okay, now this is weird.
 I checked speed setting in ScummVM, and it's 1 aka 20 fps.
 Under Dosbox speed setting is 2, aka 10 fps, as you can see in the
 screenshot.
 That explains the different durations.

 So my guess is the scripts may be trying to figure out how fast the
 computer is. We are speed throttling right from the start, the scripts may
 think they are running on a weak computer and thus hack the speed setting
 up to avoid issues. But right now that's just an assumption. SCI games
 loved to do this, and caused issues down the line for us too.
