There are tools like firecracker that significantly reduces docker overhead https://firecracker-microvm.github.io/

I believe fly.io uses that. Not sure if OP’s tool does that

No Sidekick doesn't use firecracker. I know fly.io is built around it yes. They do that so they can put your app to sleep - basically shutting it down - then spin it up real quick when it gets a request. No place for this in Sidekick vision
Was wondering the same— didn’t see any mention of it in the GH page though, nor even in roadmap
