I could reproduce the similar(?) issue when pasting very long one line text into console (NOT in mintty). When I paste the text with 10000 chars in one line (without new line), it takes almost one minute until the text pasted appears on the console. This happens with cygwin 3.6.10, but not with cygwin 3.6.9. This problem has been already fixed by: https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin-patches/2026q3/015237.html With this patch, the same attempt takes 5 seconds. It is still slower than 3.6.9, where the result is 2-3 seconds, however much faster than 3.6.10. I'll take a look the reason why the corrent (test) version is slower.
