Regarding the line in pip's resolver's output:

INFO: This is taking longer than usual. You might need to provide the dependency resolver with stricter constraints to reduce runtime. If you want to abort this run, you can press Ctrl + C to do so. To improve how pip performs, tell us what happened here: https://pip.pypa.io/surveys/backtracking

I would also like for the pip output to not only link to the survey but also to the specific "how to reduce backtracking" documentation we wrote:

https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/user_guide/#possible-ways-to-reduce-backtracking-occurring
