Why is this taking to long to install the toolchain? |

| It's something normal ¬¬ It has to compile a lot of things, this is not a binary install. Go to sleep or something and when you return you'll have all finished. |

You should watch your language.
Cygwin is slow, it will take a while for the toolchain to build. You don't need to sit and watch it though, so just start it and do other stuff.

It's not an emulator, it's a POSIX environment, because the tools need a POSIX environment, not the horribly broken windows command line.
If you have a program with that, feel free to write your own toolchain

| Takes me 45-55 mins to compile the toolchain start to finish on what is by now an old (but reliable) rig. The problem is neither the toolchain or Cygwin. |

kinda off topic:
you're complaining about 8 hour compile times?
try installing & compiling gentoo(from stage 1) on a i486 DX33 with 16MB of ram. (yes i still have a box this old)
now sit back down and shut up. |

I think everyone needs to watch what they say.
