Minify your container by up to 30x to be more secure (free and open source)
I've had great success with reducing image size by running docker-show-context (https://github.com/pwaller/docker-show-context) and eliminating big and unnecessary files that it reports. This seems to go just a bit further than that with what seems like more complexity. I got timeouts when following their instructions to run it on two different containers, one of which is just a very simple web server.
