Hi Dakota, Without knowing more about your model we can't say too much about what is actually causing the performance to be so poor. KdTree normally help with intersection performance in a massive way, and will typically be hundreds or even thousands of times faster depending on the nature of the model.
Since you aren't getting speed and slow in the first place I can't help wonder if there isn't something particular about your model that is causing problem. Could it be that you have many long thin triangles in your scene? Run you model with osgviewer and bring up the on screen stats by pressing 's' three times - the will list the scene stats. How many geometry, primitives and vertices do you have in the scene? Robert.
