Hi @full plover. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
The installation time for InvokeAI can vary depending on several factors such as your system's specifications, internet speed, and the specific components being installed. However, it's important to note that some of the installation steps, particularly the library download and install steps, can take a long time. For instance, the pytorch package is quite large and often appears to get "stuck" at 99.9%. Similarly, the pip installing requirements step may appear to hang.
If the script appears to hang for more than 10 minutes, you can interrupt the script with Control-C and retry. But generally, have patience and the installation step will eventually resume.
