That's well over VMWare's recommended minimum configuration.  I'm pretty 
sure the first machine I used VMware on was in roughly that same class. 
  I was using Linux as a host for it, which helped, though.

The way I look at it, you can continue to write complaint messages to 
the Cygwin mailing list, or you can spend some time waiting for VMware 
to grind through some tests.  You're going to spend some time either 
way.  Which seems a more sensible use of your time?
