Hi, I use the latest installer, but it only uses one mirror to download packages from at the same time. I have the impression that the mirror I selected only gives about 30KB/s, which makes installing Cygwin slow. What I would like the installer to do is to download from all mirrors in parallel different packages and in case one mirror doesn't respond that it just drops that one and uses another one. The mirrors together should be able to saturate my connection.
