Hi,
Well it might help, but since I don't have this installed in any other envs and everything is working fine I prefer to try as a last resort.
If I won't be able to find the root cause I'll try this as well.

Thanks!

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.
