Of course Docker uses much more resources on a Mac than Linux, Docker is Linux specific containers under the hood so on Mac it runs in a full VM with a Linux distro!

Yes if you run docker as part of your regular workflow you probably want more than the base ram config, not sure why this is surprise to anyone unless they don't know how docker works.

I didn't say it was a surprise; I said the marketing claim made me laugh.
