A few people have talked about adapting distcc to the native Windows API but I don't know if there is a finished patch.
That would be nice, but I don't think I'd notice much of a difference. It's the cygwin-hosted gcc cross-compiler (cc1plus.exe, I think) process that consumes so much memory. I guess I might be able to make a cross-compiler under mingw instead of cygwin, but it was hard enough to get going under cygwin that I'm not too anxious to try.
FWIW, http://kegel.com/crosstool has out-of-the-box support for running distcc and gcc under cygwin, MacOSX, and Linux.
I'm looking forward to the mingw version of gcc, I recall someone was working on a patch, don't know the status. - Dan
