It works fine for me, of course. The workaround is the standard one for cygwin and is detailed here: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-04/msg00267.html Alternatively, you may be able to extract the included file to a known directory and say: regedit /s x:\wherever\you\put\it\size.reg This loads the registry with a new default size for cygwin to use when allocating the heap. cgf --n8g4imXOkfNTN/H1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="size.reg" REGEDIT4 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin] "heap_chunk_in_mb"=dword:00000100 --n8g4imXOkfNTN/H1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
