My biggest issue with it is that there seems to be no easy way to provide more space to the VM docker runs inside. While it seems trivial it can be useful if you happen to have really large images (yes, for valid reasons). If you run too many containers you just run out of space.

I ran into this too when fooling around with SyntaxNet. It hink the default size of the VM is 16GB. I kept running out of swap space even after bumping the ram on the VM up to 16GB.

I'm curious what some of these valid reasons are - why would you have a large image instead of a minimal image with all the data linked out?
