Using docker-sync helps alot, and then using it's ability to ignore certain folders (like folders with high churn like tmp and log folders) helps even more. Over time the performance story has improved, but I still find docker-sync to be the best approach for me, and I've been 100% Docker Compose for about 4 years now (even on projects that don't deploy to Docker)
I used docker-sync for a long time, but last time I tried it (2019) it was too unreliable—I spent 30 minutes to an hour every week diagnosing issues with out of sync files and broken sync processes.
