Reading image from url takes too long

Here’s the code I used:

import requests
from PIL import Image
import io
import cv2
response = requests.get(df1.URL[0]).content

im = Image.open(io.BytesIO(response))

The image is very large. Is there a way to fasten things? EDIT: I don't want to save image on disk. I just want to read it on the fly.

Well, to have this question clear as for now. Could you please check the timing between your code and the code below on a single image. and let us know the difference.

In case if you looking to deal with multiple images, so you need threading etc.. concurrent.futures

import requests

r = requests.get(url)

with open("out.jpg", 'wb') as f:
    f.write(r.content)

also kindly set stream=True and give it a try

import requests
from PIL import Image
import io
import cv2
response = requests.get(df1.URL[0],stream=True).content

im = Image.open(io.BytesIO(response))
