The only place I regularly encounter is in containers, so people who are 
running singularity might find their users are using alpine in a way they can’t 
easily see.  Presumably the libm point Janne made applies in the container 
context as well, since the application will presumably be using the container’s 
libm, not the host node’s library.

Hey guys,

Recently been giving alpine linux a try. I am super impressed on virtualized 
version of it what a low ram footprint it has 60mb starting. What do you guys 
think when it comes to alpine linux in the HPC space?

Regards,
Jonathan
