Take a look at the -x, -E, and -X flags of 'mount'. Perhaps these

you.
Hmm, those are mutually contradictory... guess I'll "experiment". Out
of curiosity, what are any of these expected to do?
They are indeed mutually exclusive. See 'man mount' for an explanation
of the
flags. You might want to try -x or -X.
Right, I *was* looking at the man, which is why I was confused. It
doesn't say why this would help, though; does it somehow allow Cygwin to
skip the fstat() call? Also, why *is* fstat() so inefficient? Can
anything be done about it?
I *am* going to play with them, if I can convince Cygwin to let me
*un*mount the path. :-)
