The size of docker images ended up being the reason we aren't using it. Transfering them took forever, and so if we had an emergency update to make, we'd have to go outside our normal routines, which is brutal.

I'm sure we'll end up finding another way that's similar (provides the same benefits for us) but without such crazy image sizes.

Is your app gigabytes in size? Docker can't help you with that, but nothing else is going to help you, either. There has been a ton of momentum lately in getting Docker images pared down to miniscule (e.g. ~25MB... megabytes) image sizes with for example alpine. If you're using something like "ubuntu:14.04" for your images, this is absolutely a problem you can solve.
