Not sure if I'm doing anything wrong but I find cygwin/msys find very slow on my windows SSD. I mean I still generally use it just because I'm familiar but if I'm looking for a file in huge directory I look up whatever flags I need for dir (dir /s something something)

Its start up is incredibly slow, its operations are slower then native, but then you aren't doing native things.

The argument commonly used is productivity vs speed of operation. Even slow file systems are faster then I can humanly see happen more often then not.
