#21180 Could we leverage python-environment-tools? Issue created by sureshjoshi I've noticed that sometimes finding the appropriate python on my system can take 0.5-1s per run (not sure why, I'm basing this off the logs I see while running). Around the same time, I saw a note in VSCode about this: https://github.com/microsoft/python-environment-tools I have done approximately zero research into this on pants, but I wanted to create a ticket before I forgot about this entirely. 🤷🏽 Alternatives: My preference would be to setup PBS downloads and use those directly, and keep the system out of the equation as much as possible. pantsbuild/pants
