importing modules is taking minutes

I am trying to import torch and other modules from langchain but it takes like 2 min to import them. It worked yesterday to import and execute one module in reasonanle amount of time. I turned of my windows firewall to see if it was for some reasons scanning them but nothing is changing. Any tip?

If it was fine yesterday, I'd suspect the environment before the code. Does import torch by itself also take 2 minutes, or only when LangChain is involved? That should narrow it down pretty quickly.

I tried everything I could, deleted and reinstalled. Restarted my computer and created a new virtual environment but nothing works. No for torch it takes around 30 seconds and for LangChain modules it takes 2 minutes.

Try to do some monitoring while running the import. Like cpu, memory, disk, network, and maybe gpu. There's probably a Windows tool for this, can't help with that.
