  I have the same problem but it looks to me that it is a more general 
efficiency problem. How fast is your cygwin on other operations, like listing 
a folder with a lot of files (ls -l /windows, for example) ? For me its also 
a lot slower than running dir c:\windows in command.com.
  And lets not mention executing bash scripts...
  Anyway, if I have to choose, I'll still go for cygwin.

  Best regards,
