Is this on Windows? I've experienced the same for the past few releases in Windows. For some reason that clone step is ridiculously slow.

Window registry issues have been a thing.

I have heard it is to do with how windows antivirus works. Since the registry is like 10,000 seperate files. It chokes on them.

I have heard there is an upcoming feature to allow the package manager to work with the registry being kept inside a tarball, which is specifically being added to deal with this

It's not an av issue, at least not on my machine.
Yes.
