Comment on Getting worn out with all these docker images and CLI hosted apps
Pika@sh.itjust.works 1 week agoYour statements are surprising to me, because when I initially set this system up I tested against that because I had figured similar.
My original layout was a full docker environment under a single VM which was only running Debian 12 with docker.
I remember seeing a good 10gb different with ram usage between offloading the machines off the docker instance onto their own CT’s and keeping them all as one unit. I guess this could be chalked down to the docker container implementation being bad, or something being wrong with the vm. It was my primary reason for keeping them isolated, it was a win/win because services had better performance and was easier to manage.

There are a number of reasons why your docker setup was using too much RAM, including just poorly built containers. You could also swap out docker for podman, which is daemonless and rootless, and registers container workloads with systemd. So if you’re married to the LXCs you can use that for running OCI containers. Also a new version of Proxmox enabled the ability to run OCI containers using LXCs so you can run them directly without docker or podman.

Yea I plan to try out the new Proxmox version at some point to try that out, thank you again.
