Docker is an emerging container-based virtualization system. It provides virtualized environment with a small overhead. To present a filesystem to each container with a small overhead, it utilizes OverlayFS, which is a union mount filesystem. In our previous work, we proposed a method for improving file access performance of OverlayFS by reducing the frequency of synchronization. In this paper, we evaluate the I/O performance in containers of Docker and show that the proposed method is effective also for containers. |
