Slow or Unstable Docker Builds on MacOS

Control Plane

After being completely upset with insane slowness to build Docker images, this fixed my issue.

This command found that I had a couple “names/nodes” set up for build and I was using desktop-linux. Bad.

> docker buildx ls

NAME/NODE       DRIVER/ENDPOINT STATUS  BUILDKIT             PLATFORMS
default         docker
  default       default         running v0.11.6+616c3f613b54 linux/arm64, linux/riscv64, linux/ppc64le, linux/s390x, linux/386, linux/mips64, linux/arm/v7, linux/arm/v6
desktop-linux * docker
  desktop-linux desktop-linux   running v0.11.6+616c3f613b54 linux/arm64, linux/riscv64, linux/ppc64le, linux/s390x, linux/386, linux/mips64, linux/arm/v7, linux/arm/v6

We made this switch and :boom: :tada:, great results!

docker context use default

Incidentally, this command works great for tracing progress during the build:

docker build --progress=plain .
