Random long pause when starting bash

Here's some more information on the pause problem.
It's not random for me. I installed the CDK to
D:\. The installation program defaults the mount
point of "/" to "c:". After correcting this in
the registry to "d:", I launch bash via the provided
icon.
If the bash executable setting (CYGNUS.PIF) "Start in:"
is set to "D:", then I have the long pause between the
bash window opening and the display of the prompt. (As
I recall, issuing subsequent disk related commands results
in the long pause.) Changing "Start in:" to "C:", eliminates
the problem. (The prompt shows up "immediately" after the bash
window opening.)
