When yarn was new, it was a lot fastern than npm and a lot of people switched to it because of this fact.
But today, npm is not that slow anymore and has improved a lot.
You can research for benchmarks to get a fundamental statement, but in my opinion it is more of a personal decision now.

You're welcome kafin :)

Maybe you can turn this comparison into your next article (just as an idea), I can imagine that this would be interesting to a lot of people asking themselves the same question.
