And a lot of work has been done to improve Cygwin.  I'm currently using a the
most recent snapshots with no problem.  It also feels faster, I can display a
colorized long listing of the /usr/bin directory upon a fresh start of Cygwin
in ~3.6 seconds with the process getting only 10 - 11 percent of the CPU.  Due
to some brilliant path caching a subsequent issue of the same command will
finish in ~1.8 seconds.

These timings are on a Compaq Armada 3500 Pentium II 366MHz with 192M of memory
and a NT4sp4 OS.  Timings are collected by doing `/bin/time -v ls --color -la
/usr/bin'.

Cheers,
