I wasn't patient enough to time the actual loading of the file: on OS X 10.7.4 (2.4 GHz Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM), with poppler 0.18.4 and cairo 1.12.2 installed, current trunk takes about 3 - 3.5 minutes until the 'PDF import settings' dialog with the preview image opens, and then another 1.5 minutes until the drawing opens in the main window.

This is unusual based on my experience: normally, the 'PDF import settings' dialog with the preview (created with poppler-cairo) opens rather quickly, and Inkscape's own PDF import routines then take much longer (up to several minutes) until the selected page of the PDF file is finally opened in the main window.
