Is there any way to make Docker download public images faster?

core@core-01 ~ $ docker run -p 3000:8080 paulbrennan/dillinger 
Unable to find image 'paulbrennan/dillinger' locally
Pulling repository paulbrennan/dillinger
0a8ed7d461a1: Pulling dependent layers 
511136ea3c5a: Download complete 
8cbdf71a8e7f: Downloading 2.162 MB/67.49 MB 14m19s

Is there any mirror or a way to add a mirror? Why is it so slow? My internet connect is very fast here in Hong Kong.

I think the problem might be my location, if I run this on an Amazon linux server it runs fast, however from my PC here in Hong Kong its slow.

You can push the images you need into a docker registry running in your own infrastructure.

The docker registry is itself a docker container so it's really easy to set it up.

Have you looked at this article

Dockerizing an Apt-Cacher-ng Service

extract

This container makes the second download of any package almost instant.
