Thank you very much for the tip, Claus. I just started to use planner on my notebook yesterday, after having used it on my Linux boxes for several years. I met exactly the same problem (30sec for saving my day page), and almost gave up planner on Windows and shifted to org. I followed Claus's suggestion (setq muse-under-windows-p nil) and now saving my day page only costs 1 sec.
I guess it's a muse issue instead of a planner issue. I just would like to suggest putting Claus's tip into the FAQ, or let planner locally set muse-under-windows-p to nil by default under planner-mode.
