Are you sure that attaching to the process with strace isn't what actually what caused the process to start up? I don't see any 1 minute delays in the strace log. However, if you could wait for a couple minutes between attaching via strace and doing the "ls" that might be instructive. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
