I cannot reproduce this.  However, I note that it is what I consider as
slow: ~15s to display.

Hum?  I do not know.  Do you have the same configuration (PATH etc.) on
your servers (which have the issue) and on your other machine (which has
not).

What does

  $ which guix

say?

$ guix package -i python -p /tmp/test-profile -v 0
Le paquet suivant sera installé :
   python 3.8.2

conseil : Pensez à paramétrer les variables d'environnement nécessaires en 
lançant :

     GUIX_PROFILE="/tmp/test-profile"
     . "$GUIX_PROFILE/etc/profile"

Autrement, regardez `guix package --search-paths -p "/tmp/test-profile"'.

$ guix package -i python-numpy -p /tmp/test-profile -v 0
Le paquet suivant sera installé :
   python-numpy 1.17.3

conseil : Pensez à paramétrer les variables d'environnement nécessaires en 
lançant :

     GUIX_PROFILE="/tmp/test-profile"
     . "$GUIX_PROFILE/etc/profile"

Autrement, regardez `guix package --search-paths -p "/tmp/test-profile"'.

$ time guix pull -p /tmp/test-profile -l
