I created a database by running updatedb, and then i re-ran updatedb
and it took roughly the same amount of time. After a short discussion
in #linux at freenode, I think that this is because the cygwin
updatedb does not support incremental update of the database. Is it
so? Is there a way to get an incremental updatedb working on cygwin?
