Running cygserver will also cache info and speed up processing if you run many: - service daemons under Cygwin, especially cron jobs or ssh sessions - concurrent processes, especially deeply nested, forked, or background (some cron jobs background subprocesses *heavily* to reduce run time) - XSI IPC message queues - semaphores - shared memory segments otherwise that has to be managed by either the process itself or the root parent process, possibly in parallel threads. -- Take care.
