Can this Mac handle 10.5 without a lot of slowdown?

The slowdown averages about 15% or so, you can check out the Xbench or Geekbench archives for exact numbers for your specific Mac:

Leopard requires an 867MHz G4 minimally unless you use Leopard Assist or some other way to circumvent the installer check. If your lampshade iMac is 867 or greater Leopard will install normally.
