Interesting, we are also working on getting our image sizes down, but regardless I wanted to bring this up.

We also recently “just to get it working” moved from node:alpine to node:latest which bloats the image quite a bit because of internal dns failures connecting to postgres.

Any suggestion for the best possible image for running node apps on fly that need to connect to internal fly apps like postgres?
