Wake Time in Boot Camp about 5 seconds with MacBook Pro Retina (October 2013)

I use Windows with my MacBook, and I noticed the wake time from lifting the lid of my MacBook Pro with Retina is quite long. Especially considering the laptop I'm replacing is 4 years old and wakes up almost instantly, and it doesn't have an SSD. Are there any quick fixes/ solutions for this? Mac OS X works just fine, but I'd like to have decent wake times for my Windows install. I noticed the drivers from Boot Camp are a bit dated themselves...

MacBook Pro with Retina display, Windows 8

Thanks again I'll get back to you again after I've tried some things. I'm in class now.

The Event Viewer says the wake source is the AC Adapter. I don't know what that could mean.

Plugging in the AC Adapter should generate an event for display brightness, keyboard, etc.

You may have to look through Device Manager, pick a device, properties and events and view all events to check each device that can potentially wake up the Mac. Look for BT devices also.

These are the details from the power state labeled an "error". (The system firmware has changed the processor's memory type range registers (MTRRs) across a sleep state transition (S4). This can result in reduced resume performance.) The event ID is 137. I've done my turning off bluetooth and wifi and a couple other devices. I also turned fast start-up on in Windows. These are the details from a general message using that link you gave me:

The system has returned from a low power state.
