Hi，

In my request for a data, it took me so long in the queue.

Is the waring message the reason why it took so long?

WARNING Recovering from connection error [HTTPSConnectionPool(host='cds.climate.copernicus.eu', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /api/v2/tasks/7595354d-13bf-424e-9bf7-0d3b8fd7e2fd (Caused by ProxyError('Cannot connect to proxy.', TimeoutError('\_ssl.c:980: The handshake operation timed out')))], attemps 2 of 500 2022-04-11 20:08:59,692 WARNING Retrying in 120 seconds

Is there any tricks that I can speed up retrieving my data?

Hi, Did your request eventually return data from the CDS? (i.e. did it run ok?)

Thanks,
