I don't think we need to worry about it, yours is the only report we've ever had of anything like this and it's clearly nothing to do with Cygwin per se but to do with anything that creates "lots" of files at once, and even then it only happens on a disk with an utterly bizarre life history! There are lots of people using 1.7 in everyday use without any kind of unusual problems showing up. cheers, DaveK -- 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
