Coincidentally, the following message was posted to the cygwin mailing
list today.  I'm not sure that it will help you, but it seems worth a
try.

  I've been scratching around trying to figure out why bash was so slow to 
  exit (ExitProcess taking about 1-2 seconds to complete) on my laptop while 
  it was lickity-split on a similarly spec'ed workstation: the difference 
  between the machines being the laptop has Novell networking installed. 
  Following a lead mentioned on this mailing list I downloaded and installed 
  the latest Novell client (C483SP2e.exe) and lo-and-behold the problem was 
  gone.  I've seen other emails on this list from folks with similar 
  problems and thought I'd spread the news around.

  cheers
