We are using docker to build several OE based products in conjunction with GitLab CI.
The only special thing we do at the moment it that we mount the sstate and download folder as a volume into the container.
This we do mostly to save some time.
But of course you need enough space in your docker runtime directory to store the docker containers while the builds are running. After that we (actually gitlab ci) usually delete the containers and the space gets freed again.
