I don't think this is normal, even with "just" 192MB memory.
What was the last output of the build? Do you have top or ps on cygwin
to see which process is active at the moment?

If it is jikes try adding -verbose to the following line in lib/Makefile
JAVAC = $(JIKES) $(JIKESWARNINGS) +F $(JIKESENCODING) -bootclasspath ''
-extdirs '' -sourcepath '' --classpath $(compile_classpath) -d .
@classes

That should at least give a clue what jikes is doing.
