Can you share any details on M1 perf and resource consumption? Docker vm on mac is noticeably slower and consumes a lot of resources in my experience.

The only thing I can say with confidence is that if you're using ARM containers it is really fast, probably thanks to the Apple Silicon.

I imagine memory consumption is on par with running on Intel. I don't think Docker Desktop can really change that.

Honestly memory is the primary constraint for most of my mac devs running our docker envs.
