I don't recall any reported problems with Cygwin/X per se, but there is a
HUGE hyperthreading-related thread on the main Cygwin list -- you might do
well to check there.  Here's an executive summary for the impatient:
unless someone tracks down the problem and fixes it, or donates a
hyperthreaded system that exhibits the problem to CGF, this won't get
fixed.
