Hi, Until now I was using cygwin on Windows XP and I was satisfied by cygwin-1.7 but these last few days I switched to a more powerful laptop with very fast hardware (Core Duo 3.0 Ghz and SSD OCZ Vertex) and running windows Seven. Now when I test cygwin, everything is so sloooooowww, I know this is not something new but do you plan to work on this issue ? >From what I know, the problem comes from fork implementation but actually as a user I don't care where does it come from I am only noticing I cannot work anymore with cygwin. Have you ever thought of something to improve things ? Will it be one day possible ? Are you lacking some information from MS ? It's so annoying that with very modern hardware I feel like runnning a windows 3.1 on a 128 KB system ... If you answer that it's not possible to do better, in this case I will to find alternatives. Don't know if mingw could be one of them ?
