If using Docker is an option, the official Dockerfile works well, you just need to modify the FROM line to "nvidia/cuda:8.0-cudnn5-devel-ubuntu16.04". Or "nvidia/cuda:8.0-cudnn5-devel-ubuntu14.04", depending on which version of Ubuntu you want.

What sort of performance impact would Docker have in this situation? Any at all?

No performance impact as long as your I/O is done in volumes, to avoid going through AUFS.
