conda-lock ran for 30 minutes then canceled itself :(

Yes, same timeout issue at #137 (comment). Maybe open a PR to increase the timeout? Longer term, we'll need a faster conda-lock (or alternative).

Yayyy! There we go :D

Longer term, we'll need a faster conda-lock (or alternative).

I was able to create a pixi lockfile in 1min 30sec!

I'd be really interested in hacking sometime on adding pixi support to repo2docker and figuring out how to leverage it in the hub. But there's also the problem of users being used to conda and introducing a new tool. My personal belief (I'm often wrong) is that pixi's user experience is superior and will eventually edge out conda in user mindshare, but I could be overly optimistic ;)

Perhaps it could be to CryoCloud's benefit to offer this superior user experience to users and help evolve their workflows. And perhaps we could offer an equivalent conda-based image for those who just need to get something done and ain't got time for that (yet).

Looks like someone has explored this already: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjWtRFXRRko (haven't finished watching it yet ;) )
