Yes, that's on my plan next. VTK takes almost 2 hours to get to 67% in cygwin, then it failed, becuase I didn't have some X11 libs, so I installed them, but "make" didn't help. So today or tomorrow I will do it again from scratch. I estimate it will take about 3 hours to build. I think that's very annoying, but I guess there is no way around it.
