Try mamba instead of conda [0]. It's really fast.
The first time you have to run it as:
conda install -c conda-forge mamba
From then on, you replace conda with mamba. For example, if you are installing dask-cuda from the rapidsai channel you run it as:
mamba install -c rapidsai dask-cuda
At this point, mamba is just so much better and faster, that it's the first package I install in an Anaconda environment.

- DickieStarshine 5y agoThat's exactly the problem: instead of using conda you should instead use one of the myriad of others! It's balkanisation.
- short_sells_poo 5y agoUnfortunately mamba doesn't support working behind proxies (so it's a non-starter in most corporate environments) and it's anecdotal but I've had it fail and crash much more so than conda does. It is faster indeed, but there's the other aspect as another poster points out: there's now Mamba and Conda, so instead of having one standard, we now have two. Plus, mamba can't be used for creating and managing environments, so you still have to do 'coda env create ...' for example.
