Generally these days users expect to type a bit into a search
box to filter the display, and cygwin setup supports that well.
When you use it that way, no scrolling is needed.

I've been using cygwin setup for ages, and it works well for me.
It takes about 30 seconds to install a small package if I've installed something
recently; somewhat longer if there have been updates in the meantime.

Are you on a very slow link?  And have you considered decaf?  :-)
