Thanks, this does help a little. However I will still be using the 'files'
setting.
Here are some results in case they're of interest. (Windows 7/64 with
cygwin/64.)
1) Running cygwin "echo.exe" from a cmd.exe command shell
a) With passwd: files and group: files in /etc/nsswitch.conf
0.03 - 0.4 s
b) With 1.7.34 and default /etc/nsswitch.conf
around 120s
C) With 1.7.35 and default /etc/nsswitch.conf
4.4 - 4.6s
2) mkgroup
1.7.34 took 46m 4s
1.7.35 took 39s
output is 53kb, 681 lines
3) mkpasswd
1.7.34 took 1h 14m 6s
1.7.35 took 59m 0s
output is 132kb, 1081 lines
Regards,
Roger.
