base image for .NET Framework is 10GB.

they only get larger from there. Largest on my machine right now is showing to take 20GB. Granted there are a lot of shared layers between images, so the amount of space on-disk is much less than 20GB. But if you don't have any of the layers already? You're looking at 20GB easy.

This isn't true...

I just downloaded: https://hub.docker.com/_/microsoft-dotnet-framework

It was about 2.7 / 2.8 GB in size.

Total size on disk was 8.7GB but we are talking about download here.

I would say you should be moving to .Net 6 it's been several years now that .Net Core has been out so there is no excuse.

None of this is an excuse to get a 10Gbps internet connection to your house. I have a 500Mbps connection and with the corporate firewall my laptop gets 100-200Mbps connection and pulling those containers was like 10 minutes.

Edit: In case anyone thinks I'm lying:

And you have to start from scratch each month if you want to keep up with Windows Updates -- they apply to the base image.
