I tried your modified build with an NVidia Quadro 1000M on Windows 7 and it seemed okay to me.

Could some Windows users help me? I'd like to confirm the slowness only affects Intel graphics cards. Could you test a modified Inkscape binary (from ftp://download.tuxfamily.org/inkscape/inkscape-12282-cairo-1.12.8.7z), give your graphic card model and tell me if it's slow or not? IMHO it could be a blocker for 0.49 on Windows.
