Back in February 2016, I installed Git-Bash on my Windows 7 computer and everything worked great. Git-Bash would execute commands as fast as the Windows command prompt. In June, Microsoft, in its infinite wisdom, decided to self install Windows 10 without my authorization. Now when I used Git-Bash, it was painfully slow (7-20 seconds just to get the $ prompt back after an 'ls' command). I rolled back to Windows 7 and it was still slow, but now my computer was rebooting every 10 minutes or so after displaying the BSoD. I decided on a clean install and wiped the hard drive and reinstalled Windows 7 fresh. After installing Git-Bash, it was still painfully slow. I read a bunch of forum fixes and none worked. The computer I was on was an old Lenovo X200 I purchased almost 10 years ago, so I decided I needed to upgrade. I purchased a brand new Lenovo T460 with Windows 7. When it came in (Monday, June 20), I installed Git-Bash and to my surprise, it was STILL slow, but since the computer was much faster, I could stand to wait for each command to execute, taking only 5-12 seconds. I then installed Adobe Creative Cloud software, which included Photoshop CC and Lightroom CC, and I also installed MS Office 360. AFTER installing this software, Git-Bash was AMAZINGLY fast. Commands would execute almost instantaneously and I would get my command prompt back as soon as I hit the Enter key. After speaking with some people about this, they recommended that I inform you of my situation as it could be something that Microsoft installs as part of Office that helped make it faster. Not sure if this will be of any help to you all, but thanks for developing such a great product! ~Michael Wohl UberBooster, LLC (352) 258-3737
