This pull request addresses the import time regression issue identified between versions 2.31.0 and 2.32.3 of the library. The regression was caused by the
load_verify_locations()
function being executed at import time, as introduced in PR psf#6667.Changes Made:
_get_preloaded_ssl_context()
, which is called only when needed, rather than at import time._urllib3_request_context
function to use the new_get_preloaded_ssl_context()
method, ensuring that the SSL context is only created when required.These changes should reduce the import time by deferring the expensive SSL context creation until it is actually needed, thus resolving the regression issue.
Testing:
To verify the improvement, compare the import times of the affected versions using the provided reproduction steps. This should demonstrate a reduction in import time back to levels similar to version 2.31.0.
