0.45.1 was slow with that, too, though not that much. This might be related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/202704 and might not be windows specific, but it's the only issue with pre4 (Printing was not tested).

I'm afraid it's not fixable quickly enough. I have added this item to the Known Issues in release notes:

* Blur and other filters are very slow when applied to an object with transform= attribute with rotation or skew. To avoid this slowdown, either do not rotate/skew objects you use with filters, or apply filters only to paths (but not shapes to text) because paths, by default, get no transform= attribute when you rotate or skew them.
