Performance Issues

## Summary
I have some months using Libcloud v2.3.0, now when I tried to update to v2.5.0 with the same application files I'm getting a lot of errors.

## Detailed Information
Using the same server and applications **with v2.5.0 scripts stop responding and freezing very often** (like 10%) and randomly (can't reproduce it), it never happens with v2.3.0. I'm just using some simple scripts for Digital Ocean and AWS to create, stop and terminate servers, and also listing some things like images, locations, sizes and keys.

Python 3.6.8
Ubuntu 18.04

Now I've downgraded again to v2.3.0 and everything is normal and stable as usual.

Start by comparing the Python 3.6.8 application scripts on Ubuntu 18.04 with Libcloud v2.3.0 and v2.5.0 for the AWS and DigitalOcean operations described. Capture logs or tracebacks and narrow the intermittent freeze to a reproducible regression; done means the scripts remain responsive and stable on the newer version.
