Cygwin seems to only use a small amount of time slice relative to the 
ammount of time slice availiable. Compiles, builds and testsuite are relly 
slow compared to MinGW which takes too much time.

'time' results confirm this. Process time is about 1/4 of the total system 
time.

It i very noticable on compiling and testing GCC as compared to the same on 
Linux or MinGW.

Is there any way to give Cygwin a bigger slice of the pie ?

Say 50% or 75% ?

Many thanks in advance,

Aaron
