Hi,

It is annoying that Cygwin Emacs often gets stuck when yanking
a text from a Windows application.  C-g seems to be effective
though it takes tens of seconds.  I don't know what Emacs tries
to yank, but it sometimes shows the message "!MEM FULL!" on
the mode line moreover.  I wish it could work like on Linux.

Thanks.
