I started a small poll and you might want to give your input there: https://www.reddit.com/r/openSUSE/comments/r82tyg/is_zypper_slow_for_you/
The poll seems to imply that this is a bandwith problem, but from my experience it is not necessary. For a default one repo setup it's not slow, but if I add more and more additional repositories, espeically ones which moves in the same speed as Factory, it's getting slower and slower...
And for the dnf fans: I don't see a real difference there.
More repos certainly make things worse, and repos that churn frequently amplify this because you necessarily have fewer up to date mirrors. Zypper nor DNF do not fix anything there. For *me*, I switch to using metalinks so that I can get something and DNF can failover to other mirrors easily rather than just straight up failing. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth!
