Again, I don't have such issues, performance stays consistent but eats ram which is different from what you get. Question is how much ram and what CPU you have? I have Ryzen 1700 with 48GB ram which in turn uses about 2GB for docker alone. On the other hand messaging systems based on Apache Bookkeeper and so cause 2GB ram more to be used so it's not about docker in my case. Running such system with SSO like KeyCloak 900mb ram, database about 2GB as well and IntelliJ + application I build is something to excpect require more than 16GB total ram for the system. It will compensate on good SSD using its space instead of ram but if you want to run those things all at once at least 32GB should be in the system for Windows. So I guess you could check out how much do containers actually use in recommended cases
