Hi,
I have severe performance problems with cygwin. Cygwin becomes almost
unusable.
The problem seems to go away when cygwin window is out of focus, e.g.
when I click on some other window (not cygwin), cygwin performance
rapidly increases.
It has something with output to console window. When I decrease the
windows size performance also increases.
Does anyone have an idea.
Cygcheck attached.
