Docker, the Linux container runtime: now open-source
Very excited about the possibilities and convenience that Docker opens up. Will be taking it for a spin soon.Few questions regarding performance compared to running the processes directly on Linux (I guess this applies to LXCs in general - forgive me if these are due to a lack of knowledge about how LXCs work in general):- How much extra memory and CPU does each Docker process take?
- Is there any performance hit with respect to CPU, I/O or memory?
- Are there any benchmarks from testing available?Again, kudos to all the people at dotCloud behind Docker and extra props for open sourcing!!
