Helo, I''m running my RoR on Cygwin under WinXP. I was wondering if there is a way to make it work faster. There are many situations where it takes ages to wait for the result, e.g. running autotest - I have to wait loooong time until the results for tests for newly changed files pop up. Loading the rails console - takes loong, running tests manually takes ages as well. I''m buying Mac in 2 months but for now have to stick with XP Cheers, michau --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Actually i''m not particularly attached to Cygwin, and if there are any other suggestions as of faster environment for RoR under WinXP (where I can run autotest), I''d love the advice. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Last time I checked, it was noticeably slower than Ruby on Linux or Mac, but also noticeably faster than Cygwin. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

My e-book, Rails for Windows, covers in great detail how to make Rails work well on Windows. http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/railsonwindows/ I do recommend the non-cygwin method of running Rails on Windows.
