This is not a bad idea to query actual information from AD, instead of using
potentially stale flatfile database that was used prior to 1.7.34 release.
However, it may be going a little too far in this regard. You can probably
speed up the process. Please try the 1.7.35 (experimental) Cygwin version (in
setup, click on the twister against "cygwin" package until the required
version pops up).
For further information, please refer to the
https://cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#faq.using.startup-slow and recent discussion
starting around https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-02/msg00195.html


P.S.
I'm wondering, where you were last year, when the development of new
authentication scheme released with 1.7.34 was ongoing?
