So here is an example of a performance gain by not using cygwin stat(). I
did this patch in about an hour (with the help of some git code), so I
wouldn't recommend it for any production use.
On a dry run rsync from my local drive to my NAS (105GB, 34k files, 4k
directories). The current release cygwin rsync did it in [36m:43s], with
the patch (below) applied, it dropped to [04m:48s].
But your patch only does a portion of the work that stat() is supposed to
do. I don't think there's any question that ignoring the need to fill in
certain stat fields will save time. But that's not really a workable
alternative either, if that's what you're implying.
