Are you running on a 64-bit Windows OS?  Cygwin's process creation on 
64-bit Windows is currently ~6
times slower than on 32-bit Windows.  On 32-bit Windows, Cygwin's 
process creation performance is ~3
times slower than Microsoft's Interix (SFU/SUA).  It might be best to 
treat this as a Cygwin issue rather
than a GNU make issue.  I've been meaning to look into why Cygwin is 
performing so poorly here, but
haven't been able to scrape together time to do so.
