Performance Tuning

Disabled

Component How Reason
Indexing Service for C: & D:
Windows Search service 		properties tab → DO NOT Allow Indexing Service to index this disk for fast file searching) Disk grinder and performance hog
JAVA Quick Starter, IQS.exe via Java Control Panel Useless
Services TapiSrv (Telephony)

TermService (Terminal)
RemoteAccess (Remote Access Manager)

Via autoruns Suspected to generate high IO activity, related to lsass.exe ([5], [6]).

Terminal Services are needed to share desktop on Communicator!!!

CDRom autorun reg. key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\CDRom\Autorun ← 0 Might also cause IO activity ([7]).
Junos Logon entry

JuniperAccessService service

via Autoruns Redundant with RACS

!NEW! [2012-12-20] — I disabled again a few things with autoruns, and also booting as a local user, and now I'm getting 92 forks/s in cygwin (in a screen session)!!! This is really incredible since before I only got 6 forks/s:

Detailed System Settings

Preferences

  • Background: %USERPROFILE%\Pirate Mac.jpg

Environment Variables

User PATH C:\Program Files\UltraEdit\
System PATH %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\ruby\bin;C:\Progra~1\Vim\vim73;C:\cygwin\bin;C:\Program Files\Windows Imaging\;C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Program Files\TortoiseGit\bin

Network

  • Mount samba share //nxl67063ux/data as E:
    We will try to use this share as workarea (build area in cygwin, edit and source management, i.e. git, via virtualbox linux)
net use e: /USER:beq06659 '\\nxl67063ux\data'

Firewall

  • Remove group policy (after disabling netlogon) at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsFirewall. Disabled all exceptions except:
    • Microsoft Office Outlook
    • Office Communicator
    • Opera Internet Browser
    • ping.exe
    • SSH
    • XWin

Detailed Application Settings

CMD.EXE

  • Installed DOSHere

Office

Cygwin

  • Cygwin 1.7.9(1), package dir = D:\TEMP\cygwin, manual proxy, using http://ftp.gwdg.de.
  • Update group/passwd:
#Example (actually this was done automatically on 1st install, and command below does not give same results?!?)
mkgroup -l > /etc/group
mkgroup -d -g "Domain Users" >> /etc/group
mkpasswd -l > /etc/passwd
mkpasswd -d -u beq06659 >> /etc/passwd
  • Create launch shortcut Mintty Bash Shell, target: C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe /usr/bin/bash --login -i
  • Add C:\cygwin\bin in PATH (after ...\Wbem).
 ☒  TODO: might create conflicts with tortoisegit & msysgit...
  • Edit /etc/fstab to move cygdrive prefix to / (alternative to mount --change-cydrive-prefix):
vi /etc/fstab
# Add the lines:
#   none / cygdrive binary,posix=0 0 0
mount -a                                  #To mount all
Not! → Again a shortcoming of Cygwin, there is no obvious way for scripts to get the cygdrive prefix. Moreover even if it was possible, there is a big chance that scripts would still hardcode /cygdrive as the default prefix. A better and more portable solution is to leave the default prefix to /cygdrive, and create symbolic links in root dir:
for i in c d h z; do ln -sf /cygdrive/$i /$i; done
  • Add ~/bin/local/nxp/start_nxl67063.sh in windows startup group.
  • Set /HKLM/Software/Cygwin/heap_chunk_in_mb to 1024 1536(solve OoM issue in Git).
  • Added Cygwinports repository.
  • Environment variables
User ANT_HOME C:\ant-1.8.2 For ATOP java build
User CYGWIN nodosfilewarning
User DISPLAY 127.0.0.1:0.0 for CygwinX

To Do

Other

  • Solved — Communicator Share Desktop does not work (show a huge pause sign on remote)
    Solution: Enable the Terminal Services (automatic) (see [9]).

Cygwin Related Issues

  • Solved — Cygwin Git shows lots of modified files when changing directory with cd. For instance:
    • cd ~
git st               # No modified files
cd bin
git st               # Plenty of modified files in bin/ and one in ../.vim (strangely...)

    Settings: 

    autocrlf=input               # Global, in ~/.gitconfig
ignorecase=true              # Local, in .git/config
# core.filemode unset

    Solution:

    • On cygwin, we must use the following settings (to set in .git/config because these are machine specific):
    core.ignorecase=true
core.filemode=false
    Also for projects with Windows CRLF, better use:
    core.autocrlf=false
  • Issue — Synergy interfers with Cygwin/X, AltGr not working. See bug.
  • Done — Try to install Gnome Terminator (available from a CygwinPort project mirror). Tried, but failed to load (prob. requires a rebase all or something). Moreover the new X windows had worse fonts.
    • Installed from cygwinports. Nice fonts and all.
