There is overhead for sure but if you use x86 containers on an Intel Mac or arm64 containers on an Apple Silicon mac, it's pretty performant.

- diveanon 6y agoCan you share any details on M1 perf and resource consumption? Docker vm on mac is noticeably slower and consumes a lot of resources in my experience.
- jcollins 6y agoThe only thing I can say with confidence is that if you're using ARM containers it is really fast, probably thanks to the Apple Silicon. I imagine memory consumption is on par with running on Intel. I don't think Docker Desktop can really change that.
- diveanon 6y agoHonestly memory is the primary constraint for most of my mac devs running our docker envs.
