          This option enables lxd, a daemon that manages
          containers. Users in the "lxd" group can interact with
          the daemon (e.g. to start or stop containers) using the
          <command>lxc</command> command line tool, among others.

          enables various settings to avoid common pitfalls when
          running containers requiring many file operations.
          Fixes errors like "Too many open files" or
          "neighbour: ndisc_cache: neighbor table overflow!".
