SUMMARY
The Shape Adaptive Blur filter is extremely resource intensive even when applied to an image clip. It should be a lot more efficient when applied to an image clip. For example, if I enable the felter on an image clip, then extract the frame, and replace the clip with the new clip, the preformance issues no longer occur.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Put an image clip in the timeline.
2. Apply Shape Adaptive Blur to the clip
3. Playback or Render.

OBSERVED RESULT
Massive preformance issues occur when they should not occur.

EXPECTED RESULT
There should be little preformance hit.

I tested it with Kdenlive 24.12.2 on Win10 and a PNG and MPG4 file and the Shape Adaptive Blur has no effect on the picture.

Consigo editar os videos normalmente sem nenhum problema, mas depois de renderizado a reprodução do video onde é pra ter imagem fotográfica e também textos não são reproduzidos apenas fica uma tela preta nu lugar.

Translated to english:

I can edit the videos normally without any problem, but after rendering, the video playback where there is supposed to be a photographic image and also texts is not played back, there is just a black screen in place.
