I would disagree with the "they don't need to be" stmt. Many photographers and artist have legit gripes in the lengthy time many filters and transforms take in post processing. Many of these are recipes that are applied en-masse to all files in a directory.

However, taking your example, the filters can't really be optimized because they're applications run on top of a bloated operating system which isn't optimized for the reasons I mentioned. Writing a highly optimized program to run directly on the hardware of a given machine would speed up filters tremendously but also be a trade-off in terms of manageability.
