Another Google search today ("windows cmd slow") found the problem. I should have been searching for that instead of for Cygwin. Anyway it turns out to be a problem specific to Lenovo. Disabling the IPS Core Service magically solves the problem. That search led to this search, windows cmd slow "ips core" which had _lots_ of results. http://shadow.vs-hs.org/library/index.php?page=3D2&id=3D73 http://jordan.liggitt.net/2008/05/14/very-slow-typing-in-cmdexe/ http://www.technologyquestions.com/technology/windows-xp/63347-slow-typing-= command-window.html Thanks everyone!
