Hi Adam,

It would be nice to contribute, although my knowledge is not high, I could
review problems and try things.

There are two things that are difficult for me. One is to search the Cygwin
Archives, you could have a way to search for them directly on the Cygwin
website. And another is to have powerful tools to look for problems and a
FAQ where they can explain their use in detail (windows and linux tools).

I think it's not all problems in Cygwin, many times they are conflicts with
other software (antivirus is one).


Specifically for this problem, I have investigated the problem and can be
related to pipes and antivirus.

Specifically
while true
do
echo ABC | grep AAA
done

It makes the cpu of that antivirus go up.

I have seen that the pipes make use of \??\pipe routes which I have seen at
https://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html

I have it configured to exclude c:\cygwin64 and perhaps those paths of
those pipes are having effects in that other software.

By now this...

Regards
