Agreed. I don’t see how Docker is slower once the compose environment is setup (especially if you’re running Docker in Linux), and proper volume mounts are made to the source files. In fact, I would say developing with Docker will help with deploying to production, because you’ll be able to see how the app will work in production. I can see Docker being slower if virtualized, but on Linux, it’s just a fancier BSD jail, no?
