Very interesting. We’ve for sure felt the pain of large robotics images and slow deployments, especially when CUDA and ML dependencies are involved, or when adding a seemingly small ROS package pulls a long chain of transitive dependencies. The file-level deduplication approach is clever. Curious how transparent it is to existing Docker/OCI workflows. Does it require any changes to the client, or it mostly sits underneath the existing tooling?
