Docker Memory Allocation: Step-by-Step Guide

To allocate more memory to Docker, you can follow these steps:

  1. Open the Docker Desktop application.
  2. Locate the Docker icon in the system tray on the right side of the taskbar, right-click on it, and choose “Settings”.
  3. Select the “Resources” option in the left navigation bar of the “Settings” window.
  4. Under the “Advanced” tab, you will find the configuration of the “Docker Engine” section.
  5. In the “Docker Engine” section, locate the “Memory” slider and move it to allocate more memory to Docker as needed, depending on your system’s resource availability and requirements.
  6. After completion, click on the “Apply & Restart” button to apply the changes and restart.
  7. Docker will restart using the newly allocated memory.

Please ensure that your system has enough available memory before allocating more memory to Docker. Allocating too much memory to Docker may result in slow system performance or other issues.
