Interesting. We have been trying to improve (and succeeding in
improving) Cygwin's runtime performance but that's been done comparing
Cygwin to Cygwin-past and not so much by doing benchmarks against
other systems I think.
Have people run any benchmarks comparing Cygwin, Uwin, NuTcracker,
Interix, anything else out there?
