Hi,
 
This trail is puzzling me no end as I have been using gnuserv and cygwin-mount with ntemacs 21.2.1 (and earlier releases) without any problem whatsoever.  At the moment I use cygwin-mount.el version 1.4.4 of 2002-05-17 and gnuserv's rcs header reads "gnuserv.el,v 2.1a 98/10/03 14:28:00 saurian".
 
Cheers,
Karel

You are on the dot.  Removing cygwin-mount got rid of the problem.

So, we have an interaction between Emacs 21, cygwin-mount and gnuserv,
which is eating up cycles.  With Emacs 20 or without cygwin-mount,
things work normally.

I have also found another serious misbehavior Emacs 21, which I am
reporting separately.

Uday
