Comment (by otr):

 I investigated the pyyaml issue using the tests mentioned here [1] as the
 output above also suggests that there is an issue in the yaml library. I
 changed the load invokatin in report.py to be {{{yaml.load_all(y,
 Loader=yaml.CSafeLoader)'}}} instead of {{{yaml.safe_load_all(y)}}}.

 However I did _not_ observe any difference in performance. The time it
 took to import is the same down to the second and still most of the
 processing is done in parser.py, scanner.py and reader.py.
