Huh? The entire purpose of contains is that they are light and cheap.
I return to this strip as being particularly apt to this discussion, because I am
(a) suggesting that you to get a more powerful hardware if you think containers are heavy; you just need to buy a 2015 vintage machine (which you referred to in your reply so you got that :) and they will become light; and also
(b) suggesting that to arrive at a vital userops position you to adopt or at least better understand the mindset of industrial computing ("devops").
This is a privileged mindset that emerges from the privilege of having LOTS of powerful hardware; not just a more powerful workstation but millions of more powerful workstations in dozens of warehouses around the world.
Such privileges tend to leaves a smug _expression_ on one's face and trail of condescension in its wake; so I'd like to apologies in advance if I am annoying you or anyone with a condescending insistence on changing your mindset.
