On my Beaglebone AI via Wi-Fi, I got this:
debian@beaglebone:~$ *time apt search vile*
Sorting... Done
Full Text Search... Done
*real 2m10.764s*
*user 2m5.185s*
*sys 0m3.954s*
Raspberry Pi 4 Wi-Fi:
*real 0m2.637s*
*user 0m2.349s*
*sys 0m0.288s*
Running 'strace apt search vile' on the BBAI, it appears to be stuck in
some sort of read loop which is taking all the time.
*.*

*read(5,
"\344\255\246h4F\314\330y\241\250D2\350i3\0044H\253\16\250\306\364\212`2\27\331\355\323J"...,

4096) = 3200*
*read(5, "", 4096) = 0*
*) = 26ext Search... Donearch... Done\r", 26*
On the RasPi, it runs through quite quickly and done.
Cheers,
