This is because there is no native support on Mac for docker. Everything has to run in a virtualized environment that's basically a slightly more efficient version of VirtualBox. When people say docker is lightweight and they're running it on a Mac they don't quiet understand what they're saying. Docker is lightweight on baremetal linux, it's not lightweight on other platforms because the necessary kernel features don't exist anywhere except linux.
