What was the URL of the thread about compression?
Which file did you download about 5MB, from which URL, how did you 
download and decompress it: using which tools, commands, options, and 
what were the before and after sizes?
There appear to be no Cygwin setup files about 5MB:

Where possible you should normally download from local and/or official 
Cygwin mirror sites using https with Cygwin utilities such as curl 
-JOR/wget/wget2 -N which avoid or handle inflight compression 
transparently, any available sha512.sum with which you can check the 
integrity of the downloaded files using sha512sum -c, and the Cygwin key 
with which you can check the integrity of the executables and their 
signatures using gpg/gpg2 --verify.
