Is it worth buying a new MacBook Pro with Apple Silicon? But first, let’s have a look at changes in my setup.

Wondering how it impacted Docker performance? Bear with me. I changed a few things since that time, I changed my VPS, and what is most important, I changed my MacBook Pro to a new model. My final decision for 2021 was to use external VPS, although the approach with mutagen seemed promising.

In this article I am going to consider different volume configurations (default, cached, delegated) for Docker on Mac, using Docker on VPS, and mutagen (as a solution for files synchronization with Docker). In my previous article I made a comprehensive approach to finding the best option for those, who do not want to replace their Apple computers with anything else but still are forced to use Docker. Probably there are also people who decided to replace their MacBooks with Linux based computers. In many cases, it performs so badly that we are forced to look for different, alternative solutions.

Running Docker on Apple MacBook computers has been a common problem for many developers since the beginning.
