Hi,
I just got done setting up cygwin on an XP laptop. Previously, I had set it up on a couple of 2k machines and one other XP desktop. The XP console scroll rate seems to be intolerably slow only on the XP machines. I thought it may be due to cygwin but even a DOS window scrolling seems slow. It scrolls by slowly trying to do a "dir" and maxes out my 1.8Ghz CPU. Is there some option to turn off to make this reasonable or has anyone else seen this problem? I set display options to maximize performance and there don't seem to be any options available for the cygwin window that would help. I noted that some previously slow to render html does display more quickly on my new XP install than on 2k but I can' imagine how you can max out a>1 Ghz CPU scrolling text in a small window. Has anyone else noticed this? Thanks.
