We've been encountering Cygwin commands that are intermittently hanging on Windows. We don't have any predictable way to reproduce it besides running commands in a loop until we encounter a hang. So, we've created a script that will loop and execute 5 different Cygwin commands (touch, cp, mv, which, and rm) and log any commands that take longer than a second. The script is set to loop 10,000 times which gives a handful of instances of hangs in the log that have taken anywhere from 10-200 seconds to complete. Has anyone else encountered hangs from Cygwin commands?

I've printed the script below for reference:
