Mamba v0.27.0 on Windows 10 has a tendency to die suddenly

When downloading a large install (say, >50 packages), mamba v0.27.0 on my Windows 10 machine has a tendency to die suddenly during download and/or extraction of packages. I do not see this behavior with mamba v0.25.0 (and I haven't tried 0.26.0 yet).

This behavior should be evident when installing a package with many dependencies, such as geoviews, spyder, or anaconda.

Can you please monitor memory usage during the installation?

I upgraded to mamba v1.1.0, and recently it just died while decompressing files after the download had completed. Not that many files had been downloaded. I did not have a chance to monitor memory usage.

You might want to reduce the number of download/extract threads (in condarc)

I might consider that, but I have done quite a bit of installing using mamba 0.25.0, and I haven't seen this issue with that version.

We increased download buffer size (and concurrency? Not sure) in 0.26 so that might be related
