Are you running it locally?. I’ve seen it to be slower running from GitHub actions.

yes, this is local and using google cloud storage for state

hmm my state is in pulumi cloud itself, but as the project grows it might get slower.

We were initially using S3 as backend. But with a stack of ~200 resources it's so horrible slow that it was unusable 😕 I think mainly because the JSON state file got really big in size, and there was a looooot of upload & download happening + no compression. We're trying out the Pulumi SaaS for now, which is much quicker (but pricy).

we’re now using pulumi sass but still quite slow for the initial diff to even appear, i’d say a couple of minutes
