I meant using a linux VM to run docker (With Rancher Desktop).

WSL started eating RAM like if there's was no tomorrow for no reason, even when idle. And considering we had to run memory and cpu intensive tasks, that was a big problem. Several colleges saw the same issue and we all ended up moving to Mac for that reason (well, some of them just because "shiny").

Oh yeah, I'd say Windows in general just chomps through RAM, but there has been some times that WSL takes it to chrome-like levels
