I thought there was a mingw build, but apparently not. :/

You see that slow file access with cygwin?

Last time I had such a use case for windows, I used unision - but isn't rsync, of course.

Judging by this scoop.sh issue, there are no obvious not-cygwin builds/ports:

Looks like there are libraries for rust and go - but not clients that are a drop in replacement (yet).

Cygwin is faster than WSL2 but not faster than WSL1 from the last time we tested.

Our builds involve syncing directories that have several hundred thousand files in them so the speed of stat() is really the bottleneck.

I’ll give unison a look, I haven’t tried that.

The libraries are an interesting idea, I’ll look into that too.
