Podman supports this since quite a while with the krun variant of the crun runtime ( https://github.com/containers/crun/blob/main/krun.1 ), provided in Fedora by the "crun-krun" package. Just add

Behind the scenes, it's using QEMU with Alex Graf's patches for hvf (Hypervisor.framework) support, so it's Virtualization, not emulation. In other words, the performance is really good ;-) BTW, in case you don't want to

I can't comment on the comparison with Docker for Mac bacause, honestly, I have never used it. With krunvm, each session initiated with "krunvm start" is an independent lightweight VM. The maximum amount of RAM the VM can use

The key is that libkrun ( https://github.com/containers/libkrun ), the library that krunvm uses for running the VMs, as recently integrated support for Hypervisor.framework on ARM64, in addition to KVM. As for buildah, t

krunvm uses libkrun ( https://github.com/containers/libkrun ) for executing the VM, and while the later is also based in rust-vmm and shares some code with Firecracker and Cloud-Hypervisor, it's specialized in the p

I think the slide 14 from the talk "Reports of my Bloat Have Been Greatly Exaggerated" [1] presented by Paolo Bonzini at KVM Forum 2019 gives some good perspective about QEMU's security track: "Of the top 100 vulnerabili

That's correct. The initial versions of the microvm patch series did require KVM, but the one that got upstreamed does work with TCG [1], thanks to the QEMU's maintainers feedback. That said, I'm not sure for which kind of us

From the guest perspective, the differences are minimal. Even boot time of the guest (thinking about a custom-built minimalist Linux kernel here) is roughly the same. On the host side, things are more interesting. Firecraker has a smaller T
