I've been tracking the beta for a while. I'm confused about this announcement. These issues still seem unresolved?

(1) docker can peg the CPU until it's restarted https://forums.docker.com/t/com-docker-xhyve-and-com-docker-...

(2) pinata was removed, so it can't be configured from CLI scripts https://forums.docker.com/t/pinata-missing-in-latest-mac-bet...

(3) it's not possible to establish an ip-level route from the host to a container, which many dev environments depend on https://forums.docker.com/t/ip-routing-to-container/8424/14

(4) filesystem can be slow https://forums.docker.com/t/file-access-in-mounted-volumes-e...

Are these fixed in stable? I'm personally stuck transitioning from docker-machine and (from the comments) it seems like other folks are as well...

I was an early user of the mac beta and the 100% cpu would happen 2-3 times daily. Now it maybe happens once every 2 weeks.

Not sure about the others but the CPU isn't much an issue anymore. Maybe its just me being use to how bad it was.

I've been heavily using it since what must have been early closed beta, and cannot recall ever having this issue. Might be something that isn't quite so widespread.

Sadly, the state of things, be it the Docker ecosystem or others, "ready for production" means something much different than it did years ago.

For me, the definition of ready for production, Debian is a good example of the opposite end of Docker.

The filesystem is still not as fast as I would like, but it's incredibly improved over the last couple months.

One thing I found, was to be a little more cautious about what host volumes you mount into a container: for a Symfony project, mounting `src` instead of the whole folder sped up the project considerably, as Symfony's caching thrashes the file-system by default.

Exactly. "Ready for production" and "industrial" are constantly abused. All these tools are awesome and we use them, but PROPERLY deploying and supporting them in production is far from painless (or easy).
