High delay between host and docker machine in beta Mac version

System: OS X 10.11.4
latest docker for Mac downloaded from https://beta.docker.com/docs/

ping stats output:

— docker.local ping statistics —
144 packets transmitted, 144 packets received, 0.0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.138/0.272/1.517/0.175 ms

Hi, Thanks for the report.

This is strange…

My results for Docker for Mac

--- docker.local ping statistics ---
100 packets transmitted, 100 packets received, 0.0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.231/0.335/0.586/0.055 ms

And VirtualBox for comparison

--- 192.168.99.100 ping statistics ---
100 packets transmitted, 100 packets received, 0.0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.232/0.329/0.617/0.066 ms

Are you consistently able to reproduce this?

your average response time is even higher than mine… though more stable(as seen from stddev)

a newer result:

— docker.local ping statistics —
530 packets transmitted, 530 packets received, 0.0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.253/0.420/1.246/0.103 ms

I usually get less than 0.01ms on linux machine…
