Interesting, why is it faster when running a binary that doesn't
depend on cygwin1.dll after swapping the DLL?  Some Win caching mechanism?


I recognized this caching behavior with KDE/cygwin too. Under http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/kde-cygwin/tools/fillmem/ there is a tool, which could be used to minimize this influcence by clearing this

cache.
See the README for more informations.

GlobalMemoryStatusEx is only available on Win2k and WinXP.


Does anyone know a similar function under win9x ?
