Hi,

I just replied in Your bug report. Can You try to apply patch https://review.opendev.org/#/c/708695/ to see if that will help with this problem?

This environment has roughly 8,000+ security groups, and it takes nearly 75 seconds for the ‘openstack security group list’ command to complete. I don’t have actual data from the same environment running Newton, but was able to replicate this behavior with the following lab environments running a mix of virtual and baremetal machines:

We don't know, yet, if this behavior can be seen with other 'list' commands or is limited to secgroups. We're currently verifying on some intermediate releases to see where things went wonky.
