Big containers update landed.

feedback welcomed.

NB The rel-latest-next version is needed for these to be listed at 15.1. As soon as doceng has updated rel-latest to match I will fix this up.

this assumes you have pf loaded/enabled. I didn't and that tripped me up.

does this also work with a ufs setup? (eg is it doing the right nullfs mount stuff?)

It is possible to work with ufs - you would probably need to set storage.driver to 'vfs' - this is mentioned in the pkg-descr for sysutils/containers-common.

The vfs driver is inefficient and uses tree copying which can be slow when working with larger images. In theory, it should be possible to implement something similar to the Linux overlay storage driver using unionfs which would avoid the excess copying.
