Unfortunately, the performance is spectacularly bad. At first I thought it was a network problem, but even actions on the local disk are painfully slow. Here are a few examples. run ls -lR under bash in my home directory (mounted via samba) 36 minutes (!!!) run dir /s under cmd.exe 2 minutes (on the Sun workstation, the same thing takes 52 seconds, over NFS, and that includes some extra stuff mounted locally) Things are just as bad on the local disk. run ls -lR under bash on /cygdrive/c 3 minutes 41 sec run ls -lR under cmd.exe on /cygdrive/c 3 minutes 32 sec run dir /s c:\ under cmd 21 seconds In the first case, cygwin is 18 times slower than the cmd shell In the 2nd case, it's merely 10 times slower. I've had a look through the mailing list archive, but I found nothing that helped - several posts to make sure that the PATH contains no //x/ elements. I've copied the output from cygcheck -sv to the end of this post. Nothing seems out of the ordinary. Any ideas?
