'time' results confirm this. Process time is about 1/4 of the total system time.
It i very noticable on compiling and testing GCC as compared to the same on Linux or MinGW.
Is there any way to give Cygwin a bigger slice of the pie ?
Say 50% or 75% ?
How do you suppose Cygwin is managing this interesting feat of only using some of the CPU time? What Windows API is Cygwin using to just grab a small slice of the time?
As a follow-up question: Why do you suppose we are punishing you by not allowing Cygwin to use all of the CPU by default?
Oh. Wait. WJM. Nevermind.
