I remember "guix package --search" has always been pretty fast since
this patch series of Ludovic is merged into guix:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-patches/2019-01/msg00254.html.

Before that, "guix package --search" is slow.

Please check your guix's version.  If you are not using an old Guix.  I
am not sure why your experience is different from us.
