Hi Marco,
as you don't use the Cygwin APIs but go to the Windows APIs directly,
any changes to the way stat()/readdir() or related functions in Cygwin
operate do not seem to be a plausible reason why your code is running
faster. I doubt printf() can be improved to provide such a dramatic
speed-up
I recently upgraded from cygwin v2.10 to v2.11.1 and noticed that one of my
programs got a tremendous speed boost. It's a custom filesystem
enumeration program whose output I feed to frcode to update the
/var/locatedb database. It used to take quite a bit of time (15-20
minutes?), and now runs in
2 matches
