I'm recently installing some tools using NPM, but they're spending me hours and hours waiting. I don't understand what was it running for? How come it's taking me hours and hours to install just some tools. (Network is fine, really)

Probably related: npm/npm#10380

@duzy It is strange that it takes more than a few minutes to install uglifyify, and I doubt it's related to the current npm 3 performance woes. Try:

  • Maybe there's something with your environment setup? Try installing it on a project-local level (npm install uglifyify (without the -g))
  • Maybe running npm install with more verbose logging will shed more light on the matter? Try npm install --loglevel=info
  • Maybe it is a problem related to npm cache? Try cleaning it with npm cache clean
  • Maybe upgrading npm would solve your issue? Try npm install -g npm@latest

This should probably be reported on the npm repository.

Closing. Not actionable and unlikely to be a node.js core issue.

What was the reason to close this issue?

@oshingc because there was nothing to act on and although npm might be bundled with nodejs it is not the same project, therefore this bug should not live here.

You're right. Thanks for the clarification.

npm executes much faster with linux operating system rather than windows. (it's my personal exprerience)
