Hello, I noticed that there is long delay when getting the content of /proc/ladavg:
$ time cat /proc/loadavg 0.00 0.00 0.00 1/16 cat /proc/loadavg 0.01s user 1.47s system 100% cpu 1.480 total I am aware that loadavg is not meaningful on cygwin and always returns "0 0 0", but it is used in many programs and scripts. For example I noticed it with my .bashrc/.zshrc that I copied from another (native linux) system. This slowdown also seems to affect programs like 'top' which takes a long time to start and behaves very sluggish when navigating due to updating those values. Is there a reason it takes that long to react? On every other system getting the value is instant. -- m0vie -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
