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.
