Subject: Ruby Script Under performance in CYGWIN environment

Hi,

I have written one ruby script to execute the regression testcases.
There are more than five thousand of testcases to be run daily.

For Linux, the performance was ok and on expected line but on CYGWIN
shell, the script is taking a lot more time ( I would say almost
double of time) in running the same testcases as compared to similar
script written in  perl.

Is ruby under performance is related  and specific to cygwin shell or
is ruby not meant at all to be run on windows and this is known
performance issue?

I am using the following : CYGWIN_NT-5.1 and ruby 1.8.4

regards,
Ankit
