Kevin's right. If you paste his suggested fix near the end
of your .bashrc file that should do it.
export PATH=`echo $PATH | sed 's/\/\/[^:]*://' | sed 's/:\/\/[^:]*$//'`
This could be your problem right here. In your PATH:
//c/program files/microsoft visual studio/vss/win32
Unless you have a machine on your network named "c"
you are trying to browse to the UNC PATH "\\c".
That'll slow you down for sure.
I thought you said your PATH was only "/usr/bin" that's why I
couldn't see it before. cygcheck reveals all as usual.
