Answer - Armin@netPI - February-11th-2018
We found another nice paper on the internet, where Roberto Morabito from company Ericsson examined the Docker performance compared to a native system on a Raspberry Pi 2. He presented his results on 2016 IEEE Conference on Computer Communications Workshops.
His summary is: "Results show an almost negligible impact of the container virtualization layer in terms of performance, if compared to native execution".
Find his paper officially published here on the IEEE.org. Tip: if you have no account, you find his paper published on many other platforms as well where you can download the document right away.
[EDIT] Performance Document appended to this post. Also nice to read: https://hackernoon.com/another-reason-why-your-docker-containers-may-be-slow-d37207dec27f
