AFAICT podman machine relies on VirtualBox. This would be an enormous performance and resource regression on MacOS — Docker Desktop uses the much more performant and resource-conscious native hypervisor frameworks instead.
- letmeinhere 5y agoIf true, also untenable since last I checked VBox doesn't plan to support ARM hosts (including the new Mac chipset)
- SirGiggles 5y agoThis doesn't seem accurate. According to a post on the podman website: "Current implementation relies on qemu which currently has some platform dependencies." [1] I also just checked on my machine and it is indeed running on Qemu. IIRC Qemu also has support for Apple's Hypervisor.framework.
