Is nginx/Windows-0.8.0 compiled under Cygwin? How much slower is the
windows version of Nginx compared to the Linux version? I read somewhere
that the Cygwin version is 500 times slower than the linux version.

No, nginx/Windows-0.8.0 is native Win32 application built by MSVC8.
nginx/Windows is faster than nginx/Cygwin, see simple localhost
microbenchmarks in thread nginx-0.7.52
I believe Unix versions are faster about several times.
