We're experiencing the same issue, but with an older PnP.Powershell version 2.4.0.

Creating sites stalls for almost exactly 20 minutes every time, but the site seems to be created within a few seconds if one manually checks the URL (as expected). We're also often seeing an error about "Invalid field name" and the GUID for the built-in field TaxCatchAll.

This is probably external to the PnP.Powershell library.

I tried with the nightly build version 3.1.91 and could not reproduce the issue. Can you consistently reproduce the issue or it happens only randomly?
