I have the same search command line which is practically instantaneous in the
windows command prompt, but it takes several seconds when executed via
call-process.
So I try it in the command prompt, it's instantaneous.
Then I try the same command line from emacs via call-process and it takes
several seconds.
Subsequent calls via call-process are instantaneous until I don't use the
feature for a while. Then the next invocation from emacs becomes slow again.
So this behavior raises 2 questions:
1. Why is the same command much slower when invoked via call-process?
2. What does that first call-process call does/caches in emacs which makes
subsequent calls quick until it forgets something and it's slow again?
