Found this, which might be of interest:

    http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-05/msg00240.html

If anyone knows of ways to speed up the Cygwin compile, let us know.
Perhaps less optimized code options?

I'm going to take out the "-g" option from the compile, to see if
that helps.  Other people wanted that done anyway, so this kills two
birds with one stone perhaps.
