[TRACKING] GIMP is too slow ;)

Link to original bug (#141797)
Description
Of course GIMP isn't that slow, but having read some on-line articles I've seen this mentioned several times: rotating an image is slow compared to Photoshop, most plug-ins are slow compared to Photoshop', etc. It doesn't really matter if it's true or not, but we should try to change this impression that some people have.
My proposal: use this bug report to track performance improvements. As a start I am going to measure the time that plug-ins take to complete after clicking the OK button. Using the default settings for each plug-in and a reasonably large image (say 1000 x 1000 pixels) I would say that 90 % of the plug-ins should finish within about 1 or 2 seconds on my old Athlon 700.
Now I only need to find a way to profile plug-ins.
