I've noticed that the traffic LEDs on the hub I use flicker when cygwin starts to slow down. Is it possible that cygwin is trying to perform some kind of windows networking? Heavens, could windows be looking for a domain controller? I think the next command is quick because windows may cache the result of the domain controller lookup for a little while. I've tried to look for mounts or environment variables containing '\\'. The only one found was an env var named LOGONSERVER, and I don't think UNIX would use that...
