The shm-size parameter allows you to specify the shared memory that a container can use. It enables memory-intensive containers to run faster by giving more access to allocated memory.
The tmpfs parameter allows you to mount a temporary volume in memory. This removes the need to store data in your container instance and allows containers to run in a read-only mode, which can improve the security of your service.
