Optmizing availability

[jonathanbeber]

I'm trying to understand whether optmizing is possible with any other tool but ctr-remote.

Curently I'm using buildKit and it works great, but I just realised that with ctr-remote I could cut in at least half the startup time of my pods. On my tests, the latency of creating a pod and accessing its HTTP API goes from 13 seconds without optimization (simply docker buildx) to 3 seconds (with ctr-remote).

I'm using pods on my CI, what makes DinD already kind of challenging and running containerd I believe will be another kind of difficult setup, so, if possible, I would like to understand if buildKit, nerdctl or Kaniko can run any kind of optimization too.

If not, is any work in this direction on going?

Thanks in advance.

Bumping this, im also using CI and DinD to optimize and would be great to have a setup where we can ctr-remote optimize reliably. Im getting a bunch of errors because of nested OverlayFS
