Hi Corinna,
sounds good. I'll give this a go, all being well, tomorrow.

In other news it appears that the ADInsightDll uses some shared data to
communicate, so in order to get ADInsight to work with injection one has to
ensure that the DLL injected is the same actual *file* as the one loaded by
the ADInsight program (in the (windows) %TEMP% directory) - a copy of the
DLL doesn't seem to be effective.

Regards,
Roger.

I rewrote the function responsible for the slow startup, the one
fetching all the group information for the groups in your user token.

As I just wrote in my mail to Dennis Hagarty, the performance improvement
should be noticable, even with /etc/nsswitch.conf only using the "db"
setting for groups.  The group info for a user token with 150 groups was
fetched in ~50 ms rather than the ~300ms of the former code.

Can you test this again with the Cygwin DLL from the latest developer
snaphshot at https://cygwin.com/snapshots/ please?


Thanks,
Corinna
