Tools like Docker and Vagrant will generally download and cache images, but these are often easily re-downloaded.

Additional directories to be excluded from Time Machine backups:

~/.vagrant.d/boxes
~/Library/Containers/com.docker.docker/Data/vms

Docker already has an option for this:

Now when I run sudo mdfind "com_apple_backup_excludeItem = 'com.apple.backupd'", it already lists the Docker VM folders:

~/Library/Containers/com.docker.docker
~/Library/Containers/com.docker.docker/Data/vms/0/data
