slim（原docker-slim）是一個開源工具，全稱SlimToolkit（https://github.com/slimtoolkit/slim），用于基于已有的Docker鏡像減小鏡像的大小，同時盡可能保留容器的功能。它通過分析鏡像的運行環境和應用程序依賴，移除不必要的文件和組件，從而減少鏡像的大小，加快容器的啟動速度，并減少資源的占用。官方聲稱可以縮小達30倍。
安裝
測試機使用anolis 8 x86_64 (kernel 5.10.134-13.an8.x86_64)，所以直接選擇對應版本二進制即可。
#wget https://github.com/slimtoolkit/slim/releases/download/1.40.11/dist_linux.tar.gz
#tar zxvf dist_linux.tar.gz
#rsync -vaP dist_linux/* /usr/bin/
使用
1. 測試官方提供的鏡像
>> docker pull archlinux:latest
...>> slim build --target archlinux:latest --tag archlinux:curl --http-probe=false --exec "curl checkip.amazonaws.com"
...>> docker run archlinux:curl curl checkip.amazonaws.com
...>> docker images
archlinux curl ... ... 17.4MB
archlinux latest ... ... 467MB
...
2. 測試大模型大鏡像

實測效果
1. 官方的鏡像壓縮了20倍+
#docker images
archlinux curl 1d98ea103b43 22 minutes ago 22.1M
archlinux latest 694ad64eaa86 4 days ago 486MB
2. 大模型鏡像壓縮了11倍+
cuda-runc 2.8.1 2cee313ecf4c 4 weeks ago 196GB
cuda-runc slim-2.8.1 065d66c7e559 6 minutes ago 16.7GB
綜上：slim的壓縮效果還是很不錯的。
