Many other people have reported this issue, and several folks have offered advice. For instance, setting w32-get-true-file-attributes was certainly helpful for most of the slowdowns -- that wasn't a bug, but a change that was documented in a very old changelog. And one that most users, including myself, wouldn't have thought to connect with this problem. Right now, I think I MAY have further narrowed down the hanging problems with opening files thanks to a clue from this blog post: http://blog.zzamboni.org/solving-hangs-in-emacs-on-windows .
There is an excellent set of diagnostic tools for Windows called sysinternals: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb545046.aspxMicrosoft bought the company that made these tools and distributes them for free. You can try using them to see what is going on when the hold-ups happen.
