Now I am indeed using an old cygwin version and can not update it due to dependency issues . Do you have a workaround for this problem ? As per my understanding this problem will not be seen if we limit the maximum number of threads for a process on cygwin (this will of course make it slower , but that is fine ) . Am I Correct ? If yes , how can we do it for cygwin ? Thanks for all your help.
