In that case...

What Streets of Boston said.

And if your filters need some amount of neighbouring pixels, you may be able to use overlapping slices, provided you're real careful with how you do the calculations in the overlapping parts.

and*DEFINITELY*
     not, as I saw suggested in one of the many old posts I read, reducing
     the resolution to work with it, and then raising it back up to full
     resolution, presumably thinking that the lost resolution would just
     magically restore itself.:-)

Um, I don't think such magic exists. Not in computers, anyway :)
