Slow/sluggish response ("system" task at 50%)

Over time my cygwin responsiveness seems to have diminished. When
compiling a project I can see that "system" task (not the system idle
task) is running a lot at 50%. I don't know if this is normal or not.
Possibly there is some corporate security s/w slowing it down now, I
don't know. Or would possibly a reinstall of cygwin help?
I have tried closing all other windows, rebooting etc but it is always
slow. I don't notice a problem with other apps, just cygwin. Any other
suggestions on what this could be?
Thanks,
-gene
