I think your next step must be to run "ls" under "strace" and see where the excess time (presumably idle time) is going.

Hi Igor,
I tried disabling ntsec and "ls -l" is still slow. I'm using 1.3.15-cygwin-1-3-15-1. "ls -l" and "ls -ln" takes almost the same amount of time. On a directory with 3 short text files, the difference, when I timed "ls -l" and "ls -b", is still considerable.
