I was just testing `git status` (using cygwin git), or a pretty large repo: NTFS: `git status -s 4.40s user 23.98s system 257% cpu 11.034 total` BTRFS 1.1: `git status...

That `cbfs6.sys` looked suspicious to me, so I disabled it. I'm not sure how I ended up with it installed. The status time was reduced a lot: `git status -s...

I've never had much trouble building nix on cygwin. What I did have a lot of trouble with is fibers/coroutines, which are used by nix via boost. They are sort...
