If your system is bogged down, the cygwin command overhead could slow things down alot.
A single command replacement: /c/Program Files/Sysinternals> psexec
PsExec v1.31 - execute processes remotely Copyright (C) 2001-2002 Mark Russinovich www.sysinternals.com
PsExec executes a program on a remote system, where remotely executed console
applications execute interactively.
Usage: psexec \\computer [-u user [-p psswd]][-s][-i][-c [-f]][-d] cmd [argument
s]
-u Specifies optional user name for login to remote
computer.
-p Specifies optional password for user name. If you omit this
you will be prompted to enter a hidden password.
-s Run the remote process in the System account.
-i Run the program so that it interacts with the desktop on the
remote system.
-c Copy the specified program to the remote system for
execution. If you omit this option the application
must be in the system path on the remote system.
-f Copy the specified program even if the file already
exists on the remote system.
-d Don't wait for process to terminate (non-interactive).
program Name of application to execute.
arguments Arguments to pass (note that file paths must be
absolute paths on the target system).
You can enclose applications that have spaces in their name with quotation marks e.g. psexec \\marklap "c:\long name app.exe". Input is only passed to the remote system when you press the enter key, and typing Ctrl-C terminates the remote process.
If you omit a user name the process will run in the context of your account on the remote system, but will not have access to network resources (because it is impersonating). Specify a valid user name in the Domain\User syntax if the remote process requires access to network resources or to run in a different account. Note that the password is transmitted in clear text to the remote system.
/c/Program Files/Sysinternals> pskill
PsKill v1.03 - local and remote process killer Copyright (C) 2000 Mark Russinovich http://www.sysinternals.com
PsKill terminates processes on a local or remote NT system.
Usage: C:\Program Files\Sysinternals\pskill.exe [\\RemoteComputer [-u Username]]
<process Id or name>
-u Specifies optional user name for login to
remote computer.
/c/Program Files/Sysinternals> pskill SecureCRT
PsKill v1.03 - local and remote process killer Copyright (C) 2000 Mark Russinovich http://www.sysinternals.com /c/Program Files/Sysinternals> 3 processes named SecureCRT killed.
/c/Program Files/Sysinternals>

You could always rename it "killall.exe" if that suites your fancy... Doesn't
take a signal number though....
