Package update/install painfully slow

I have two laptops running Manjaro. They have… Mostly the same setup and apps installed, I think… But on one of them, package managers (I use pacman, pamac or yayyay most of the time) are excrutiatingly slow… be it for resolving the libraries or installing/compiling packages.

I don’t really understand how this is possible, especially given that the slow laptop is way more powerful than the other. All help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Sort your mirrors.

sudo pacman-mirrors -f && sudo pacman -Syu

Amazing, that did it! Thanks.

Check on

pacman-mirrors --help

for further options, such as protocol (https, ftp), country, etc.
Just remember to always sync/update afterwards like above.
Cheers :slight_smile:
