I tried each 3 times to make sure that the numbers were tracking reasonably, and then took the mean.

It’s super easy to set up, and even though it’s a young project, it’s well-maintained and people have been having good experiences with it. And for those of you concerned about Docker Desktop’s new subscription license fee, it’s a great option. But as you see here, it’s a great option for other reasons. - -And of course, if you haven’t tried out Mutagen with DDEV on macOS, it’s time. Run `ddev config global --mutagen-enabled` and `ddev restart` and you’re on your way, see [DDEV docs](https://docs.ddev.com/en/stable/users/performance/#using-mutagen). Although we were all worried about filesystem consistency originally, the feature has turned out to be shockingly reliable, but read the docs for caveats. - -Some takeaways from this round of testing: - -- **Everything is faster** than it was early this year, sometimes by a _lot_. -- **Docker Desktop VirtioFS** has made incredible progress. Now with macOS Ventura 13.1, Docker Desktop 4.15.0, the promise has met reality. It’s super fast, and seems to be reliable. The problems that plagued it for most of the last year seem to be resolved, permissions, ownership, and DDEV custom commands work right. In March 2022, it wasn’t usable, but now it’s great. It’s really, really fast with Mutagen enabled, but quite usable even without. -- **Colima with 9p mounting is nearly unusable** – I wasn’t willing to wait for it to complete the install. Even though I show it in the graph as taking 150 seconds, the reality is it would have taken 600 or more, but that would have skewed the graph and I was impatient. (Note that 9p is the default mount type in Colima 0.5.1, so don’t use it right now). I recommend that you use `mountType: sshfs` to start in Colima, but experiment with `mountType: virtiofs` if you’re on macOS Ventura. -- **Mutagen remains a great default choice**, but Colima and Docker Desktop VirtioFS are probably now adequate choices if you want complete consistency. (Although they passed my casual tests of the things that used to break, I don’t have many real-world reports of what happens when people use these without Mutagen.) -- At this writing there is a bug in Colima where some upgraded instances aren’t mounting at all. Make sure in your `~/.colima/default/colima.yaml` mountType is not empty; change it to `sshfs` or consider `virtiofs` if you’re on macOS Ventura. -- For DDEV + Colima I still recommend the conservative `--mount-type=sshfs --vm-type=qemu` but the more adventurous of you will have fun with `--vm-type=vz --mount-type=virtiofs`, and it remains wonderful to work with Mutagen enabled in DDEV. I look forward to hearing your feedback. - -Congratulations to the [Colima](https://github.com/abiosoft/colima), [Lima](https://github.com/lima-vm/lima), and [Docker Desktop](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/), and [Mutagen](https://mutagen.io) teams for an amazing year of progress! - -Interested in engaging more with the DDEV community?
