Hi,

I've been a long-time Cygwin user and become quite dependent on it.

So, I'm in a bit of a pickle since I did an update from a mirror site today, and now my Cygwin window startup takes about 3-4 MINUTES (it was < 2 seconds before).

I'd been using it and all was well, and then the update seemed to 'do' something which results in this behaviour (there were quite a few updates).

I have been through the archives and tried what I could find - It's certainly nothing to do with bash completion.

Login from a remote machine to my Cygwin-enabled device is normal.

Also, I can start multiple minitty sessions from one Cygwin window and it's almost instantaneous.

But clicking on the desktop icons requires a multi-minute wait.

Any ideas where to start?
The daemons/services seem to be fine. 
There are no entries in the event log.
There are no resources being consumed.
I've taken out my .rc and profiles files and no difference.

I'm happy to go digging, but I need a pointer of where to dig.

Here is the output of my cygcheck:

~ cygcheck --sysinfo
