Research direction
The report names Python's http.client and Windows but no source files, tests, or reproduction steps. Start by recovering the original BPO-33838 report and locating the timeout-controlled upload path, then reproduce the slowdown on Windows. Done means uploads no longer show the reported performance problem and the regression is covered by a test.
