Since upgrading from 2.21 (it may have been a later version we were working with when the issue showed up) we've noticed

pants export

takes about 10 times longer to execute than it did before (originally 60 seconds currently 600) its on the order of the amount of time it takes our

pants generate-lockfiles

to execute (which has always been in that time range) Has there been a major change since then that may have caused this to happen or is it more likely our dependencies have triggered the issue?

From 2.21 to…? If you upgraded one version at a time (as is recommended) at which version did you notice this? Does anything stand out in the release notes?

alas, I was doing it based on our repo history, so not sure if its tied to a dependency. I'll take a look at the dependencies and see if i can just knock them out one by one to find a culprit

If you could narrow this down to a simple reproduction that would be very helpful
