Hello, While making effort to port minitage [1] to windows, i had in mind to test cygwin2 (setup-1.7.exe as i understood) as it as improved support for some things like getaddrinfo and posix threads. Indeed the goal is to recompile a bunch of libraries from sources, then make them link together, and here come problems. With cygwin2, i have a non identified GREAT loss of performances during compilation (minimerge is yet another interface to ./configure && make && make install for this package (python-2.6)).
./configure seems way much too long, make && make install seems or a bit slower.
It would be good to try to explain that :
Cygwin
----------
(minitage)$ time minimerge -NRv python-2.6 # compile/install only python 2.6
... minimerge & compilation output ...
real 8m50.782s
user 3m11.068s
sys 3m49.647s
(minitage)
Cygwin2
----------
(minitage2)$ time minimerge -NRv python-2.6 # compile/install only python 2.6
... minimerge & compilation output ...
real 23m26.250s
user 3m50.358s
sys 6m41.791s
(minitage2)$
I have read about path issues and network share. They don't seem to relate to
this case.
The twice environement are similar in installation, i made attention not to have
any cygwin isntallation in global $PATH.
Basicly, here are my notes about what's installed more than the default:
* archive
tar
zip
unzip
zlibdevel
* base
sed
* devel
mercurial

minires-devel
automake

* lib

* net

openssh
openssl
rsync
* python
python-2.5.2
* shell
bash
* utils
bzip-2
