Hello,

please see this thread (test scripts included):
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-09/msg00871.html

I can only confirm this. Process creation is much slower with 1.7.7 than
it was with 1.5.25. The "fork" script runs 300% slower on my XP box.

But on the other hand, Marco Atzeri could not confirm this on his XP
box. I'm sure it's all about time slowing down in the vicinity of black
holes...

Best regards
Gergely
