Time-to-first-search is very slow on statically-linked versions of Python (such as packaged with conda), as precompiled code cannot be used, so things are compiled from scratch. I think this adds some friction to the user experience, so this PR introduces a warning that recommends the user try
pyenv
if startup time is important.When JuliaPy/pyjulia#496 is solved, this warning is no longer needed.
See conda-forge/python-feedstock#222 for the discussion on the conda page.
