Slow/sluggish response ("system" task at 50%)

[Gene Smith]

Over time my cygwin responsiveness seems to have diminished. When 
compiling a project I can see that "system" task (not the system idle 
task) is running a lot at 50%. I don't know if this is normal or not. 
Possibly there is some corporate security s/w slowing it down now, I 
don't know. Or would possibly a reinstall of cygwin help?

I have tried closing all other windows, rebooting etc but it is always 
slow. I don't notice a problem with other apps, just cygwin. Any other 
suggestions on what this could be?

Thanks,
-gene
