Cygwin becomes almost unusable. The problem seems to go away when cygwin window is out of focus, e.g. when I click on some other window (not cygwin), cygwin performance rapidly increases. It has something with output to console window. When I decrease the windows size performance also increases. Does anyone have an idea. Cygcheck attached.
