From: jlj@cfdrc.com (Lyle Johnson) Subject: Pregnant Pauses with bash... 18 Jul 1998 11:55:22 -0700 Message-ID: <002601bdb1cf$83719e90$4e574dc0.cygnus.gnu-win32@coltrane.cfdrc.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: All, For what it's worth, I still have the problem with bash pausing for several seconds whenever I change directories. It only seems to be a problem when I give an explicit path for the command, e.g. cd c:/winnt/system32 If I only use relative paths it doesn't seem to hang up, e.g. cd ../../src/app I looked through the mailing list archives and saw the advice about unsetting the MAILCHECK environment variable; that doesn't fix it. Also, per the FAQ list, I made sure that my Bash shortcut specifies a startup directory; that doesn't fix it. If I start a DOS shell and then start bash from within that shell, it seems to fix the problem. So... is there any progress on tracking down the underlying bug(s)?
