Docker Pull Inside Vagrant Box Is Extremely Slow

Vagrant
1

Hi,
I’ve provisioned a VM with Docker, and docker-compose using the vagrant-docker-compose plugin. My host machine is connected to a VPN using OpenVPN.

I’ve observed that docker pull inside the VM (from a repo in the VPN) is extremely slow compared to the same operation in the host (hours versus ~15 minutes). Relevant sections of my Vagrantfile follow:

    # ...
    # config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.56.99"

    # ...
    # config.vm.network "public_network"

    config.vagrant.plugins = "vagrant-docker-compose"
    config.vm.provision :docker
    config.vm.provision :docker_compose, compose_version: "1.27.4"

    config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|
        vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--nictype1", "virtio"]
        vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--natdnshostresolver1", "on"]
        vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--natdnsproxy1", "on"]

        # Customize the amount of memory on the VM
        vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--memory", "16384"] # 16G
        vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--cpus", "4"]
        vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--cpuexecutioncap", "90"] # Use max 90% CPU available to host
    end

Any ideas? What am I missing?

Thanks,
Manoj
