If you are using this deprecated CLI, you may get this error.
The workaround is to explicitly set thebatchSize. Theimportcommand takes an optionalbatchSizeargument using the-bflag. Using this should circumvent the network speed test altogether.
It is highly recommended to switch to the new CLI as it is an official/supported library, and should be even easier + more convenient to use in your build process.
