Mamba performs significantly faster than conda for installing packages from conda-forge, since the channel has a very large package index.

Note: mamba also powers mybinder, so this helps dogfooding things a bit more.

Often I start installing a package with conda, then wonder why it's taking so long and see that I had accidentally used conda from muscle memory. I usually hit Ctrl-C and install it much quicker with mamba.

Should mamba also be added to the user facing docs then?
