Why does Config Drive metadata retrieval takes long?

edit

The current version of Cloudbase is installed on Windows Server 2022. The configuration is done via Config Drive. It takes several minutes for these to be applied. The log shows that there are timeouts when checking an HTTP metaservice before the Config Drive metaservice is used. This process takes far too long. Is this normal behavior? Can the HTTP metaservice be disabled so that Config Drive is used directly?
