We're seeing the same issue. We've been using shared folders with VMware for a long time, which are also slow (but not this slow). There's a case for keeping the Docker environment stateless and expendable (wipe to restart), and keep certain things (PostgreSQL databases, for example) on the host machine. Currently, that's impossible because of the aforementioned issue. I haven't tried the "cached" flag since it's still in beta, however.
