Pretty much.
I had bad experiences running Docker directly on MacOS. The IO latency was unbearable. I know they are working hard on it so maybe it's better now, but this setup works well for me.
- throwaway4good 6y agoI run Oracle DB (which is a scary piece of software) inside Docker on an Intel Mac. It runs perfectly fine. What exactly are you guys running that causes it to be "unbearable"?
- ccouzens 6y agoAre most of the database's files within the container's filesystem (as opposed to a volume mount)? Most of the performance issues with Docker on Mac happen in setups where source code or other files are volume mounted from the Mac filesystem into the container filesystem.
- throwaway4good 6y agoAs far as I can see everything goes into the massive ~/Library/Container folder. No volumes.
