Description
One of our three Release Pipelines, using the task Deploy Azure App Service, is taking 3 times longer to deploy. We seem to have isolated it to Oryx.
Each Release Pipeline is deploying to its own Linux App Service within the same Subscription, using the same plan, using the same Agent, using the same Service Connection and using an artifact coming from the same Git hash (approx 108MB). The Release Pipelines are essentially also configured the same.
Example of SBX, taking 265 seconds:

Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start by comparing the supplied Oryx build logs for the SBX and DEV Azure App Service deployments, especially the time spent copying files to the destination directory. Investigate why equivalent pipelines using the same artifact and plan have different durations; done means identifying the cause and documenting a reproducible fix or next diagnostic step.
