Slow GCC under 64-bit?

[Pedro DeKeratry]

I experience very slow GCC compilation times on win7 64bit computer as
compared to a 3 yr old computer running winXP. The win7 machine has
has a much newer/faster CPU and 2x the memory as the XP machine. The
slowness exists on Cygwin versions 1.5.x and 1.7. I haven't figured
out what the cause is much less a fix.
