Fascinating since the range request pattern originated from fast-deps but https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8670

Yep. pip be pippin'
It's kinda the thing with all of these new, hip languages/frameworks/toolchains. As pesudo-replacements for the incumbent, they're not saddled by years/decades of technical debt or edge cases, so you see a good idea, you do the good idea - full stop. You see that 90% of the perf hit is from 5% of the workflow, maybe you just drop the 5% of the workflow 🤷
I don't know if it was in this talk, or the other, but the cache strats are great. You don't store zipped content, stream unzip it to disk, and hardlink galore. And since that's for a dev-workflow, on a singular machine, it works great
