Sorry for a long delay. I finally found a few minutes to look into
this.
First, I don't see a ~100-fold slowdown, I see only a 10-fold slowdown
(vs Emacs 22.3). This is with a directory that has ~130
subdirectories.
I have a hypothesis for the reason of this slowdown, but I need a few
more facts from you to make sure the slowdown I see is caused by the
same factors as what you see:
. Do you see significant difference in speed with cold and hot cache?
That is, if you run Dired on the above directory, then kill the
Dired buffer and immediately run Dired again on the same directory,
what times do you see then in Emacs 23?
. Does it help to set w32-get-true-file-attributes to nil? If the
previous test shows a significant speedup with hot cache, please
try this with a cold cache, which may mean rebooting the machine
where you are trying this, or maybe waiting long enough for the
cache to "cool down" and in addition restarting Emacs (to get rid
of Emacs's internal caching).
. If w32-get-true-file-attributes does have a significant effect,
please tell how many different user names and group names you see
in the listing presented by "C-x d".
Thanks in advance.

Did you have a chance to do this? If so, can you post the results?
