Re: Performance problems with emacs-X11 in current cygwin (attn: glib and gvim maintainer)

[K Stahl <kdstahl at gmail dot com>]

This morning, I reverted GLib2.0 to a previous version and it did not
solve the issue.

Steps used in testing:
Extracted "libglib2.0_0-2.30.2-1.tar.bz2" and ran /etc/postinstall/glib2.0.sh
Started XWin and attempted to edit a file via gvim (performance issue
still remain)
