I just set up a docker dev environment on Mac and I would not call it slow anymore. If you were referring to volume mounts, they are 10x faster now. Definitely fast enough for our work.

They are definitely faster and great improvements.

But when I can use Linux through qemu and compile my companies Haskell application in 45s rather than 3m30s...

The choice is obvious to use Linux.


Depends how much memory your container needs to build…
