描述
# 🐞 bug report
### Affected Rule
`py_binary` and `py_test`
### Is this a regression?
No
### Description
Hermetic toolchains incur a significant overhead to executing Python targets due to the large amount of files which are added to the runfiles tree.
You find an analysis of the issue here: https://github.com/martis42/show_hermetic_python_overhead
Bazel caching of course negates much of this issue in daily working.
Still, whenever a test has to rerun we pay this additional overhead.
I don't know if there is a "perfect" solution possible given how Bazel sandboxing works.
However, it would be great if rues_python would add a note in its documentation for hermetic toolchains that adding `--nolegacy_external_runfiles` to the `.bazelrc` file is recommended.
Maybe the `rules_python` maintainer can even convince the Bazel maintainer to prioritize working on flipping `--legacy_external_runfiles` in Bazel 8 ?

贡献指南
调研方向
从链接的 show_hermetic_python_overhead workspace 开始,比较使用 hermetic toolchain 时 py_binary 和 py_test 的执行情况。阅读 hermetic-toolchain 文档以及 .bazelrc 设置 --nolegacy_external_runfiles;当 overhead 和建议得到清晰记录,或限制得到解释时,即表示完成。
