I seem to get a couple of answers (see my response to Andrey).
I just ran it now and got 83 lines - it took a few mins.

About 1/10 of the second.

Ok, running 1.7.35-0.2

cmd /v:on /c "echo !TIME! & C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe /bin/echo "test" & echo !TIME!"
12:31:08.46
12:31:09.93 = 0:01.47

Settings = Both = "db"
About 1.65 seconds

Settings = group = "db", passwd = "files db"
About 1.65 seconds

Settings = group = "files db", passwd = "db"
About 1.50 seconds

Settings = group = "files db", passwd = "files db"
About 1.45 seconds

Yes, I can do that.
