On cygwin and wsl, make check seems to run into deadlocks or at least disastrous timeouts when running multiple processes. With a single process, cygwin runs it more reliably than wsl does. Conversely, sometimes (rarely) wsl can run make check-c and make check-fortran simultaneously. So it takes typically 2 full days to build and make check on cygwin.
