You can do the same in dash (sans time) for example to rule out bash. > Any idea how to diagnose the cause of this? Is there any Cygwin specific > logging/tracing to see where it is happening? Maybe: strace bash -c 'time cat some-file | while read i;do echo $i;/bin/true;done' Haven't tested it. Simplify the command: for((i=0;i<150;i++));do /bin/true;done to rule out a pipe-problem. -Helmut -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
