I seem to recall some pretty poor performance regressions in Docker containers versus equivalent Debian-based container configs.



Using musl instead of glibc leads to enough surprises that I've migrated my alpine containers over to Debian-slim based ones. If you have a bunch of containers built on the same base, the storage of Alpine vs Debian becomes less substantial, and you avoid a lot of weird bugs and a surprisingly large performance hit (at least for python)
