is there any point to using the “Pause Docker” option in Docker Desktop? like ideally pausing Docker would mean it stops sucking up the entire memory limit that I’ve set for it, but it doesn’t seem to do anything. keeps on using 16 GB of memory for no reason.

@davidcelis i'm guessing it makes it possible at least for the OS to swap docker's working memory out to storage?
@davidcelis it’s a well known fact that pausing docker is a technique meant to distract you from the fact that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table.
