Counter-anecdote to OSX Docker: My OSX Docker experience was nothing short of painful. Anything CPU intensive brought the entire laptop to a crawl. When I went down to metal noticed at least a 10-15x performance improvement, due to the way XHyve does things with the disk (I think?). This may have changed recently, but I won't run Docker on OSX anymore unless I have to.

I’m not sure how long ago that was but there has been at least one update over the last few months that change how they use storage. It had to wipe the VM (subsequently deleting containers) so warned me about it first.

It's been a while. Good to hear that's improved. If I need to retool local again, I'll give it another shot.
