I added remote-repo: mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn:http://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/hackage to .cabal/config to speed up downloading.
However, there are still some temp download files at /home/me/.cabal/packages/hackage.haskell.org whose size is increasing during cabal update, for example, 00-index.tar18042893831714636915.gz1957747793424238335.tmp .
The cabal update seems hung after

This renders the mirror repo useless because cabal need to wait the downloadings from hackage.haskell.org to complete which is slow.

Ah, I'm afraid you've misunderstood what the remote-repo does. If you provide multiple ones then these are not treated as mirrors of each other, rather they are independent repos and cabal gets both and takes the union of them.
You can see this hinted at when it says:
Downloading the latest package lists from:
- hackage.haskell.org
- mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn
If you want to use a mirror then specify that one only.
Note that the new secure repo format also includes the ability to use mirrors and do quick incremental updates of the package list (though the initial download is a little larger). cabal-install-1.24 can opt-in to use this, and it's the default in 1.25.
