I have the > same problem on my Cygwin systems. Just to be clear, I'm not trying to blame Cygwin here. Windows' dir command is slow. Windows Explorer is slow while browsing directories. Eclipse chugs hard while doing any directory scans (it normally runs very fast if its not rescanning the entire directory structure). The drive is just plain slow. Yea, I know, get a faster disk... but some bean counters don't believe that a $50 more expensive disk could ever save enough time to warrant the extra $50 captial expenditure... I spend at least an hour a week waiting for enough IO to finish so that the mouse pointer will move again. *sigh* --
