I agree. A couple of days ago there was a mention about Wirth's law [1], which reminded me how far we went with containers.

I'm using vagrant for development and sometimes I run 2-3 containers with the same project.

My MacBook has 16 GB RAM, 2.8 i7 CPU, but no wonder I have troubles with the CPU going to the top.

I'm not sure how far containers will be popularised, but indeed it will definitely have some performance drawbacks.
