Oh, this is an interesting lead.... I feel pretty certain the request isn't coming from our Python after stepping-thru the code.

The other suggestions -- using a SSL proxy -- has been my plan of attack.

If it takes several seconds to set up a test, I would give this a try:

  - start a test from the IDE,
  - wait a second or so,
  - manually pause all threads,
  - look at the stacks of the threads.
Might take two or three attempts, but likely should learn you a lot. Alternatively, use a real profiler to find the call(s) that take lots of time.

Try an strace?

    strace -e trace=network ./run_my_unit_tests

Also -f so it follows forking (I always forget that the first time, swear, and have to re-run strace with it)

What OS are you running? It's pretty straightforward to get going on OSX in my experience.
