If you wonder why that is, it's because Docker for Mac actually runs the Docker engine inside a Linux virtual machine.

That means that whenever you call Docker, it has to copy your "context" to the virtual machine, then actually run the Docker invocation inside the VM. This gets slow and annoying very fast for even 10MB "contexts".

"Context" is anything in your working directory, more or less.
