You could try this turbo app that allows you to set the entire speed of the
computer:

But I think the best thing would be to get a dos version of the game and
play it with the msdos emulator called dosbox. Not only does it offer a
decent speed through all aspects of the game, you can also take advantage of
the prepatched version of xcom that have working original sound effect and
music. You can find info for getting it to work with xcom here:

Hope that helps.
