Lower your threads, try again - I guess you've just press start with lots of projects and not scheduler. I have ran at 100 or 2000 threads and got 500+LPM, it's all down to your setup. I ran silly spec dedis, but there's no need for them unless you're scraping with Gscraper/Scrapebox at the same time. 3.4GBRAM is my record without SER crashing.

I've also found that lowering Max Page Size makes a massive difference to CPU usage.

This makes sense - if your running 500 threads, your downloading 500 pages at any given time - That is a lot to deal with, especially if your max page size is cranked up, and your hitting HUGE blog/guestbook comment pages.
