When downloading python, the speed is too slow

[zackzhy]

Cog downloads python from https://www.python.org/ by default. I know it is best for most users, but for me, the speed is too slow because of the area I'm in. Is there any way to change the download address?

No, sorry, but you can try --use-cuda-base-image=false to use a base image that already has python installed. I also recommend using a remote server in GCP, AWS, or similar that has decent bandwidth
