For starters, check out the Cywgin FAQ :-
http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#TOC75 (How is fork implemented)
and the Cygwin User's guide, especially :-
Highlights of Cygwin Functionality/Process Creation
There are also some discussions about fork and vfork in the mailing
list archives, and I see that there have been some changes to do with
vfork during the last year or so but don't know whether that is
applicable to Postgresql.
