The only answer is to exit the scanner, The effect can be seen using Task Manager, with the scanner active Make (and its sub processes) get about 40% of the processor, and the Idle process the rest, exit this scanner and Make get 100%. The source directory and Tools directories are both excluded from the scanner. Robert. -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Check out: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
