There's also 1.7 - <http://cygwin.com/#beta-test>

I will take a look at this. By the way, on the weak laptop I mentioned earlier, I get equal speed (and good speed) building a fairly big program on msys and cygwin. The "system" process barely registers any activity at all.


One other note. Although the cygwin speed is slow, all programs seem to work OK.

Definitely a point understood. I'm not sure what's getting in the way on this problematic machine. In that context, the reference to 1.7 is a possible way to side-step the problem (or not ;-) ) but it certainly doesn't pinpoint the issue.
