There have been comments about this on other forums.
Basically the maintainer says
There have been lot of discussion about this issue. What you should know is :
- Having an accurate preview for some filters is almost impossible, as the effect is estimated from either a rescaled version of the image, or a crop of the image. Sometimes, there are no ways you can compute what a filter will render with these two choices.
- Also, never try to change the preview zoom factor ! The computed preview will be likely very different from what you see on the preview.

also since many of the filters come from other subscribers it depends how the filter is coded.

Not much you can do. Render to a new layer/image so the original is untouched is a good bet.
