Not to discourage you but there will be a fairly low tolerance for much

performance is a regular source of complaints on this list (and

By the way... Right now i'm testing 64-bit Cygwin, and it appears to be
significantly faster. I wonder, did you do anything special to achieve this
? Or does this mean just that 32-bit API on 64-bit Windows is slow ?
The 64-bit port employed fewer hippos. As it turns out, they were terrible
coders.
And hippos aside (I think we all know how difficult it is to do that!),
64-bit proggies on 64-bit CPUs are supposed to be a little zippier anyway.
