Re: [webkit-dev] Running the GTK port on macOS with Docker
Hi, I found out that disk I/O is terribly slow on Docker for macOS. I had to give up on my build after several hours because of that. So I tried "Mutagen", wasn't able to make it work, and kind of gave up and moved to the next thing on the pile of things to do... Today I just found one possible workaround, involving docker-sync. I'll give this a try and report back.

Re: [webkit-dev] Running the GTK port on macOS with Docker
Hi How is that effort going ? Having a way to build the GTK port today would have saved me a lot of time. Instead I had to keep uploading patches to bugzilla to find compilation errors.

Re: [webkit-dev] Running the GTK port on macOS with Docker
Hi. Personally, I would love a way to quickly build for GTK on my Mac, as for now I had to rely on pushing to the EWS, wait for compilation errors and fix them as I went. So something running in docker using my local tree would be ideal.
