The only answer in the faq (that I see) relates to a deprecated
feature for drive specification.  In this case cardano is a machine.
I have mounted the smb share that cardano exports.
 

So the question still stands if I run:

find //cardano/anm/sw/cvsroot -name somefile

it takes 2/3 the time as:

find /anm/sw/cvsroot -name somefile


So it seems that there is a pretty serious consequence in using the
cygwin mount system against network shares is expensive.

does anybody have any idea what is going on here?

mark.
