Predictably slow is still slow. You could parallelize it over multiple GPUs, but GPUs are expensive, so nobody is going to do that. Requiring lots of training resources is fine, but inference needs to be cheap.

More problematic is that your approach isn't going to actually work, since CNNs are just too flexible (they can learn even completely random labels) and only generalize by accident. No input augmentation technique that doesn't cover every possible modification is going to be robust against adversarial examples, and getting that amount of coverage requires an exponential blowup in runtime. The adversary has the advantage of being able to choose one modification, while the model needs to defend against all of them.
