Try this

Store your cos/sin values as (int)(cos(angle)*1024)
Then do the matrix multiply as

	c(0,0) = (a(0,0)*b(0,0) + a(0,1)*b(1,0) 
		+ a(0,2)*b(2,0) + (a(0,3)*b(3,0)) >> 10;

where a is your initial 4x4 coordinate matrix and b is your translation
matrix that is precomputed. ALL values in the b matrix should be integers
that are 1024 times their proper values while a is an integer matrix with
the proper values and c is an integer matrix. This results in 4
integer multiplies, 3 integer adds and 1 shift (the reason for 1024 instead
of 1000 scale factor) No floating point at all.

Also, try to determine if you are really rotating about all 3 axes. If not,
you can drastically simplify the computations and increase the speed.
