Very slow network performance of Docker containers with host's network

Question

I\'m having a problem with sluggish network performance between Docker containers and host\'s network. I asked this question on the Docker\'s forum but have received no answers

Your problem sounds very similar to this open issue on the Docker for Mac repo. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a known solution, but the discussion in there may be useful. My personal guess at the moment is that the bug lives near the hyperkit virtualization being used on Docker for Mac specifically.

In my case, I was oddly able to bypass this issue by using a different physical router, but I have no idea why it worked. Sadly that's not really a 'solution' though.

I hate that this isn't a great answer, but I wanted to at least share the discussion in the open issue. Good luck and keep us posted.
