If you mean for 1.9.x then there is no way to predict that. It's possible that the next major release will introduce cygwin2.dll. That would be a long time coming. > Is Cygwin now significantly faster? I don't know if anyone has done timings. Compiling Cygwin with gcc4 has decreased its size relatively speaking but I haven't look lately to see how it fares against cygwin-1.5.x. Given all of the features that Corinna added I think it's likely that 1.7.x is bigger and potentially slower to load. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
