Background
Since upgrading to version v6.0.1 (PR), dependency installation via pnpm i has taken more than one minute. The release notes for this version
do not mention any significant changes related to caching.
To verify whether this version might be responsible for the increased installation time, I created a PR that rolls back to v6.0.0 (the main branch currently uses v6.0.5). In the first run of one of our CI jobs, the initial commit took 1 minute and 19 seconds to install dependencies. However, a subsequent run of the same job, without any changes, completed in just 3.5 seconds.
I might be missing something, but in these test scenarios it appears that rolling back to the previous version significantly improves pnpm i performance. Do you have any ideas what could be causing this difference?
