I was having the same problem as Patrick Graebal (see Bash hangs, CTRL-C required). The cygwin shell was very slow to start, and executing "bash --login -i -x" showed that the time consuming programs were the same (id -un, uname -s, etc.). I also tried reinstalling base packages, a complete reinstall, etc. On a whim, I shut down [EMAIL PROTECTED], and things were back to normal speed.
My [EMAIL PROTECTED] client is setup to run all the time in the background. When it is set to only run when the screensaver is active, it seems to not interfere. So, my solution for now is to change my [EMAIL PROTECTED] settings. If it matters, I'm running [EMAIL PROTECTED] version 3.08. cygcheck.out is attached, if it is significant. And, while I'm posting, thanks to everyone for the great work you've done with Cygwin - my work would be impossible without it. John Whitlock John DASH Whitlock AT IEEE DOT org
