I also use cygwin for managing seti work units (simple shell script alows to compute 100 work units in off line mode). Trying latest (dated on 2005-Mar-16) snapshot solved problem partially. Starting a new cygwin shell session is now quick - it does not matter if seti works or not. However stoping shell script that runs seti still takes lots of seconds - I did not observe such behaviuor with any released cygwin dll before 1.5.13-1. My CYGWIN variable is set to: CYGWIN=tty notitle glob notraverse
