Same problem here with mc, freezing ten / twenty seconds on directories 
navigation and subshell call (crtl-O). Using mc with -u, --nosubshell 
option "fixes" the problem, but of course, ctrl+O is disabled.

lftp has same issues (freezing and high %CPU on bash.exe) while 
executing local commands (!ls, !cd, ...).

Reinstalling cygwin package from 1.7.18-1 to 1.7.17-1 restored a safe 
behaviour.
