idle bash using 95% of system resources?

Wed Oct 11 13:57:00 GMT 2000

I'm running netinstalled 1.1.4, including bash 2.04.0, under Win2K.
I've modified cygwin.bat as follows:
 C:
 chdir \cygwin\bin
 set CYGWIN=tty
 bash --login -i
After running for a fair while, I find that I lose performance across
the board, and that bash is the culprit: although it's still working
OK, the Windows Task Manager shows 90--95% of CPU going to bash.
Anybody else seen this?
Any fixes/workarounds suggested?
Note I don't _think_ this is the same as the 'slow bash' problem, in
that it's not a "time to come back to bash prompt" problem, but a
permanent cycle-sucking one.
Thanks
