Don't do it :)

For setup.exe to to install everything it has to download everything,
checksum everything, unpack everything, install everything, rebase
everything. This takes time, regardless of which mirror you use.

Why do you want to install everything? I doubt there is a single
person on Earth who has used every single Cygwin program.
