Iakov Gan updated an issue   Puppet Task Runner / BOLT-1536 Bolt takes 1 minute to execcute a trivial remote command on windows Change By: Iakov Gan Hello, As a new bolt user i find it quite difficult to get started because bolt takes about 1 minute to execute a simple command on a remote windows host. The goal here is managing windows and linux nodes from a windows workstation. But with a basic command that takes that long it is hard to iteratively debug and operate.   I wonder, how i can make bolt to execute simple commands faster? What would you recommend to improve the execution time of bolt?  !bolt-execution-time.png! Here i test varios connection methods: |*shell*|*connection method*|*execution time*| |cmd|winrs|1,468| |powershell|winrs|13,602| |powershell|Invoke-Command|16,23| |powershell|bolt+winrm|67,038| |cmd|ssh|1,268| |powershell|ssh|13,075| |cmd|bolt+ssh|47,106| |powershell|bolt+ssh|56,574|   I test on a windows 10 laptop (xps15 2.2 GHZ, 16GB RAM) with a local vagrant vm (windows sever core 2019).   Here is my code for illustration {code:powershell}PS C:\vagrant\windows2019-core> vagrant winrm -c 'echo "hi"' --shell cmd hi [00:10.920] PS C:\vagrant\windows2019-core> vagrant winrm -c 'Write-Host "hi"' --shell powershell hi [00:22.866] PS C:\vagrant\windows2019-core>  vagrant ssh --  'echo "hi"' hi [00:14.596] PS C:\vagrant\ 14 windows2019 - windows- core -node > vagrant ssh --  'powershell write-host "hi"' hi [00:24.211] PS C:\vagrant\windows2019-core> vagrant powershell -c 'write-host "hi"'     default: hi ==> default: Command: write-host hi executed successfully with output code 0.
