VirtualBox and VMWare are hardly "tiny." I've never had a good experience with VirtualBox on any platform. Thing is constantly broken and endlessly updated to break in newer, less Google-able ways and just causes never-ending grief in unexpected places for me.

By contrast, I've never once had an issue with VirtualBox. Vagrant and VirtualBox are my best buddies.

I know who I'm inviting to Vegas next trip. Assuming you haven't used up all your luck. https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Changelog

For extra fun, use a Windows Insider Preview. VirtualBox was broken on every single update, I think until 5.0.17.

Just tried 5.0.18, still broken.

I've had some problems with Virtualbox but I was able to overcome them. I'm sure that using Docker will be much the same.
