Description
Feature or enhancement
Proposal:
Following on from#109653, further improvements can be made to import times.
Links to previous discussion of this feature:
For example:
importlib.metadata is often used for tasks that need to happen at import, e.g. to enumerate/load entry point plug-ins, so it might be worth seeing if we can cut down its own import time a bit more.
importlib.metadata importszipfile at the top for a function that won't be called in the vast majority of cases. It also importsimportlib.abc, which in turn importsimportlib.resources, to subclass an ABC with a single, non-abstract method - I assume redefining the method inimportlib.metadata would be harmless. Some other less frequently-used imports which are only accessed once or twice, such asjson, could also be tucked away in their calling functions.
