Igor, I don't have an answer for you, but I noticed something similar, perhaps of the same origin, when I tried using Cygwin Perl with Win32 (non-Cygwin) Apache (in order to run the CVSweb CGI script).
This delay was not a one-time thing and it occurred when there was already another Cygwin process running (namely, BASH in a console window). The Windows Task Manager did not show high CPU usage during this delay. By using ActiveState Perl the startup from Apache was always prompt. I have not problem with using ActiveState Perl for my CVSweb, but I am curious what causes the start-up delay.
