Python 3.9 pip install slow on Fedora 33

pip install on fedora 33 using python3.9 is very slow.

Can be reproduced in a venv using the following steps:
python -m venv venv
. venv/bin/activate
pip install numpy matplotlib

Numpy takes a couple of seconds to fetch the wheel. However, matplotlib takes forever to install.

Helllo @saireborn, welcome to the community! Please take a minute to go through the introductory posts in the #start-here category if you’ve not had a chance to do so yet.

Fedora 33 has not yet been released. Please contact the QA team to discuss any issues you see with Fedora 33:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA

I don’t see any bugs against pip, so you could file one to discuss the issue with the maintainer too:
