Yes. ;)

I haven't found any one thing that's particularly slow.  Or more 
accurately, I haven't found one thing that feels at all as performant as 
on Mac or Linux.

Scrolling the Script Editor, typing in any field, populating fields from 
a DB, waiting for the Project Browser to update - pretty much the whole 
workflow of my day in LC on Win is painful, compared to the easy breezy 
experience I get on Linux and Mac.

Is there a bug report on this?  Is this something the team is working on?

Does the IDE staff spend at least some of their time each week working 
in Windows on iron?

With an 85% desktop share, it seems worth whatever inconveniences keep 
them mostly on Macs.

Just one full day on Windows each week would be so illuminating, these 
lags wouldn't survive long.
