Hi. I'm using grep 2.25 in cygwin on a 17 MB log file. I happened to notice that when I did "grep Migrate" on the file some lines were missing. If however I did some other filtering first, i.e. "grep foo | grep Migrate" (where foo would match those lines), they are included.

I cannot reproduce this issue with grep 2.5.4 on Linux.

I tried minimizing the log file by removing lines that I did not expect in the output, but when removing lines before the expected line the problem dissappeared, so somewhere in the first 17 MB (of my 50 MB file) there is something triggering the bug.

Due to the nature of the logged data, I'm not willing to make the file publically available in a bug report, but I'm willing to transfer it to one of the maintainers, or by some other means help out in debugging. Please suggest how to proceed.
