Hi guys I am using the newest version of cygwin (1.7.28) on my Lenovo Windows 7 machine (4 cores, SSD disk, 12GB RAM) I have installed oh-my-zsh and the prompt is extremely slow. I've executed a simple test "time git branch" in a folder with a sample git repo - and it takes around 100 - 150 ms - which is a lot.
I've checked the BLODA list and it looks the my environment is fine. On some other windows host (Azure Virtual Host, Windows Server, 2 cores) with the same cygwin version and the same oh-my-zsh config the "time git branch" command takes around 20-30 ms. (5 times less) I've looked at some possible solutions (disable UAC, setting the PATH, etc) on my Lenovo host - but it didn't help. One thing I was thinking about was the fact that the Lenovo machine has a lot of network drives mapped. I was trying to umount them but I couldn't find a way to do it. My question is: could these network drives cause the git.exe to be slow and if yes, what's the best way to umount/disable these network drives so that my prompt is quick again. Thanks in advance for your help.
