I’m using Local by Flywheel, the loading times are really slow. My set up Mac OS X 10.13.3 Local 2.2.3 Usual setup WP 4.9.4 PHP 7.0.3 Apache MySQL 5.6 When I try to turn ‘Faster Docker Volumes’ on in the ‘Preferences \> Advanced \> Faster Docker Volumes’ it turns itself off after leaving preferences and coming back. And yes, I do click the apply button first. ---

Hi @crs1138 , It sounds like Faster Docker Volumes is failing to start up. Can you please provide your `local-by-flywheel.log` file? It should give us a little more insight on why FDV may be failing to start. See “[How do I retrieve Local’s log file?](https://local.getflywheel.com/community/t/how-do-i-retrieve-locals-log-file/3720)” for instructions on how to do so. ---

@crs1138, Sorry for the delay! Based off of the log it appears that the Virtual Machine cannot connect to the NFS server in Local. Do you have any type of internet security, anti-virus, VPN, or proxy running that could be blocking the NFS server? ---

Aha, is it allowing all traffic for `unfsd` and all of the VirtualBox binaries such as `VBoxHeadless`? ---

No rules for `unsfd` and allows all traffic for `VirtualBox` and `VBoxHeadless` ---
