Python pip extremely slow to download (stuck at Colecting…)












0















I don't know why, it's been some weeks, pip is slow like hell to retrieve a package (like 5 minutes per package).



it hangs at "Collecting [...]"



any idea ?



I tried different versions of pip and of python / pypy, same problem.



There are other questions on that, but there are from 2013/2014 which is pretty old and maybe not applicable (at least, I tried them with no result)

  • pip install -vvv may print more info to give you some insight.

  • using it, it looked like it was stuck on a HTTPS request. So I tried to add a --timeout 1 and it's much faster now, but I don't know if it is the answer

pip repositories can be under heavy load and that may cause slow download ratio.



I would suggest trying to use mirrors.



pip install --use-mirrors


This flag will automatically use backup mirrors.
