I'm sorry if I'm being alow here - is there any problem with running a production server on cygwin's postgresql? Is the cygwin port of lesser quality, or otherwise inferior?Right, but not having the luxury of time travel (wasn't that removed in Postgres95? ;-) ) we can only go by what the majority think. We won't know if it's actually right unless we try it.
We could run a survey saying 'would you use PostgreSQL on win32', but the chances are that the vast majority of potential win32 users would not visit the site to answer that until it became widely know that we do support win32, by which time of course it's all a bit moot.
Unless of course, you have other stats that prove that win32 support is uninteresting to most people and potential users?

Performance, performance, perfomance... and perfomance... it is (almost) always worse perfomance when we emulate something... and using Cygwin we are emulating U*nix...
