In cygwin rxvt works without X server. In your case, it's not case of X server being slow. It's either X not running at all, or $DISPLAY not set correctly. You can check for yourself if you try any other X app like xterm. It will take same 60 sec of timeout and won't start. Correct ?

It works; thanks. So, I assume it was trying to connect to the X server. Maybe offtopic, but can you tell me why X is slow, or point me somewhere that could tell me?
