Yo,

Wandering what the limit is when it comes to how many containers I can run. Currently I’m running around 15 containers. What happens if this is increased to say, 40? Also, can docker containers go “idle” when not being used - to save system resources?

I’m running a i7-6700k Intel cpu. Doesn’t seem to be struggling at all with my current setup at least, maybe only when transcoding for Jellyfin.

    Zero.

    I run VMs and LDoms at work and VMs at home, a dwindling number of VMware VMs and a growing number of qemus to replace them.

    I don’t need the hassle.

      Get a load of this guy, thinking containers are more of a hassle than VMs!

          Don’t make fun of someone because they like doing things the old way.
