Description Andrew Gvozdev CLA 2011-05-18 13:12:05 EDT
On cygwin I notice with Process Explorer that every few seconds "cygpath" program or two is called. I am sure that contributes to performance problems of egit, see bug 346079, bug 333204 etc. Working under egit is very bumpy.

Dup of bug 346303?
Comment 2 Andrew Gvozdev CLA 2011-10-26 12:45:09 EDT
Alright, did not see the other one at the time of reporting. It's somewhat consoling that you are not infallible either, bug 346303 is this one.
