Containers have become a standard for deploying applications due to theirconvenience, but they often suffer from significant software bloat-unused filesthat inflate image sizes, increase provisioning times, and waste resources.These inefficiencies are particularly problematic in serverless and edgecomputing scenarios, where resources are constrained, and performance iscritical. Existing debloating tools are limited in scope and effectiveness,failing to address the widespread issue of container bloat at scale. In thispaper, we conduct a large-scale evaluation of container bloat, analyzing thetop 20 most downloaded containers on DockerHub. We evaluate twostate-of-the-art debloating tools, identify their limitations, and propose anovel solution, BAFFS, which addresses bloat at the filesystem level byintroducing a flexible debloating layer that preserves the layered structure ofcontainer filesystems. The debloating layer can be organized in different waysto meet diverse requirements. Our evaluation demonstrates that over 50% of thetop-downloaded containers have more than 60% bloat, and BAFFS reduces containersizes significantly while maintaining functionality. For serverless functions,BAFFS reduces cold start latency by up to 68%. Additionally, when combined withlazy-loading snapshotters, BAFFS enhances provisioning efficiency, reducingconversion times by up to 93% and provisioning times by up to 19%.
