Re: cygrunsrv taking near all cpu time

[Gregory Borota <borota at softhome dot net>]

From your message I understand the problem is caused by Panda Antivirus
not cygrunsrv....

I also had in the past some minor issues with McAfee
(halting one postinstall script, causing cygwin to run slower, etc.).
From my experience antivirus software would cause problems not only with
cygwin but also lots of native programs.
