Installing Pytorch on IBM Power 9 architecture

Hi,
I am trying to install pytorch on IBM Power 9 architecture but it is taking obnoxiously a long time(~2 hours). It is stuck at below step -

I am following this path steps.

Is it a normal time to get it install on power 9 architectures? Is there any other way?
Below are further details of the system I am working on -
Cuda version
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 9 Jul 26 2019 cuda → cuda-10.1
drwxr-xr-x. 14 root root 254 Jul 26 2019 cuda-10.1
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 131 May 4 2020 cuda-10.2

OS NAME=“Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server”
VERSION=“7.6 (Maipo)”

uname -r

4.14.0-115.el7a.ppc64le

I don’t know what the current support of Power 9 in the prebuilt binaries is, but maybe a source build would be faster? Did you take a look at these build instructions?
