  Container runtimes on macOS (and Linux) with minimal setup

As I was tracking the above performance regression, I discovered an open-source container runtime for MacOS/Linux called Colima. It is pretty much a Docker Desktop drop-in replacement and also offers VirtioFS (on Ventura - i.e. MacOS 13.x or newer). You don't need to uninstall Docker Desktop, just stop it and install Colima e.g. through Homebrew:

• HomeBrew
