with rancher-desktop when executing docker build commands after executing a few times Rancher desktop locks up. The build just hangs indefinitely. When using docker buildx build ... it always hangs. Is this a known issue and is there a fix. I'm running Rancher-Desktop version 1.7.0

on what platform? Windows? macOS? Linux?

Sorry, that would be helpful. Mac OS 13.1; M1 Pro; 32gb

from memory there are ways to get more verbose output from docker build(x). For me, the

pull

phase is incredibly slow. If you're morbidly curious, you could use

rdctl shell

and then use

strace

to watch the underlying docker daemon...

beyond that, you kinda need to figure out which process is misbehaving (docker[on macOS], the dockerd in the lima vm, the lima vm, something else)

my guess is that the

strace

(or even

top

in the vm) would give some insight

good luck -- i'm not the person to help past these hints 😕

thank you

the process that sucks up resources is the qemu-system-aarch64. That thing is a resource consumption beast

you'd want to run

top

from inside

rdctl shell

to see what's actually spending the resources
