How is your site hosted? Typically, this is due to something happening on your host, rather than a specific WP connfiguration. Ask your host if they’re blocking connections to wordpress.org.
Okay sir, let me check this with my hosting provider
@pankajperfect I am not sure if this would be something related to your hosting provider.
There are other reporting similar issues since a couple of days now including me!

Even opening WordPress.org & it’s forums including this one takes a long time on occassions.
It is unfortunate that instead of checking internally WordPress.org response is to send the OPs running to their hosts while the problem could be with WordPress.org itself!
Thanks
While there are occasional times when wordpress.org is a bit slow, they don’t last long and are almost certainly not related to this, @koolpal
@sterndata I am sorry I will have to disagree with you.
I have seen this recurring intermittent issues since days now and I have spent hours agonizing over this. I finally managed to isolate the issues to wordpress.org server problems.
I finally landed on this forum to see similar issues reported by others. Please see the details posted by me on https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-org-servers-slow-plugin-updates-timing-out/
Do you not think that it is weird? How can it be assumed that ALL OTHER hosting providers have started facing the SAME problems at the same time!
Thanks for replying to me. I hope the team managing wordpress.org servers manage to fix the issue some time soon. I can imagine the difficulty in managing it in the current difficult times.
Stay safe!
@koolpal There are no server problems with WordPress.org at this time.
Please do not post in other people’s topics for your own issues.
The issue may be with php-fpm so by disabling that it has resolved the issue. May help you in the future to try that first as we have tried everything and it was as simple as that and yet it was never flagged in any errors. We believe its an error to do with cloudlinux and centos 7 when you uninstall cloudlinux it leaves a kernal behind that effects the system. But a quick Fix is just disabling php-fpm on the domain effected.
Even if you didn’t have cloudlinx installed before we have found it works.
@otto42 May help in the future;
