One obvious downside is that it doesn't allow guests to modify the OS at all. A VM gives you an entire OS, so you can use and manipulate anything. If you don't *need* all that flexibility, then a VM is paying an unnecessary cost, ergo Docker will have no downside. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
